Hi Prakash,
Sorry I do not have any good tips on how to troubleshoot the issue, but
I do have had a similar experience that I thought I would share incase
it was helpful.

I recently found a similar issue when running Open Enterprise Server
(essentially SLES 9.3) on a DL380 G4. The system would run fine after
boot and perform great throughout the day. I would return the following
day and find that SSH would be sluggish to respond (if it would at all)
and that web services would error out or be extremely slow. The problem
I had ended up being the powersavd daemon.
You may try disabling it by going to /etc/init.d/ and running
'./powersavd stop' and then 'chkconfig powersavd off' to remove it
from startup.

I just stumbled upon this by disabling the services that I knew were not
necessary for the system to run and started with power management since
it has proven to be a pest on several windows systems I've experienced
in the past. I just happend to be lucky that day and found the problem
process before I was too deep in. So that might be an aproach you may
want to try. For what it's worth.

I hope it helps,
-Garret

Hi All,

This issue relapsed again last evening (19th March). I have nothing in
the logs, and again, the system was crazily working on the 2 primary
disks in the system (Raid 1 mirrored).

Anyone has any idea how I can debug this? Even a reference to some tool
or how to get into the system during a freeze or something in that line
would be greatly helpful.

TIA,
Prakash
