Re: server unresponsive after several days

Greetings list,

I have a server that serves (pun inevitable) as storage array on my network.
This machine works fine, except for the strange fact that, a few days after
booting up, the machine, while still on, stops responding to pings, to keyboard
input, to ssh requests, and anything else I can throw at it.

Would anyone like to suggest a troubleshooting approach to this? Has anyone
heard of any such thing happening? The OS is Red Hat Enterprise Linux AS release
4 (Nahant Update 3). Is this, in your experience, more likely to happen due to
the hardware being wonky, or the OS having some bug?

Thanks in advance,

Christian Leger

What hardware are you using? Any firmware upgrades available for your NICs?

Kind regards,

Herta
