Hi,
I have a server that is running centos 5.3 x86_64 that until last week was running fine. With no error messages in console and in /var/log/messages the server simply stops responding.
After a reboot everything is fine. The only change (that I could find) but that was not active before the first incident/reboot was the update of the kernel and friends.
The server (is this can help) is a intel quad core, 8GB RAM , 3 x 1TB disks (raid mirror with 2 active / 1 spare via 3ware controller)
Any known problem with the kernel-2.6.18-164.el5.x86_64? (I am assuming that this would be the only thing that could cause the problem due to the lack of other messages.
Regards.

I went ahead and gave the MIT Kerberos LDAP backed option a try. So far it seems to work quite well and nothing has crashed (yet :)). I'm going to run this setup for a couple weeks and see if I can break it.

Hi
Are you using nfs4 ?
Could it be the fact that nfs4 does not work with this kernel ?
This bit me hard Revert to the previous kernel or use nfs3

Hi John,
Yes I am running nfs4 (NFSD: Using /var/lib/nfs/v4recovery as the NFSv4 state recovery directory).
I'll try to boot with the previous kernel but the bugs mentioned reports problems while using the nfs. In my case I get no error messages from nfs as I can mount/read/write from the nfsclient to this server.
Regards.

Hi,
So far after the downgrade of the kernel I've been able to surpass the last uptime (2 days). Perhaps too soon to say but it seems that the kernel is indeed responsible for that.
The problem is that a new kernel was released yesterday by RH and I could not find any evidence that it has solved this issue.
Does anybody have better info?
Regards.
