Would have loved to know that then ;-) We have 2 8-node clusters that runs many java applications, and many java applications on seperate servers. I went nuts when all java running servers cam to 100% cpu all at once ! The guy I spoke to at RedHat GSS at about 00:45 UTC baiscly told me to reboot the server, wich ended up rebooting our 2 clusters... Bad... But since computers all over the world crashed, our clients did understood that the problem was far lower than they beleived it...
