We had the same kind of crash as usual, except the machine didn't come back up this time. We received several "timeout" messages and then the machine froze. The machine is configured as follows: Two AHA2940 cards, 3 2gb disks each CCD striping (interleave of 65536) on all 6 SCSI disks One 2GB IDE disk. It is our news server, and is rather heavily loaded. Before 2.2.1 the machine would reboot and come back up (after fscking the disks for 10-20 minutes). Anyone have any insight(s)? NB - the IDE disk has alot of IO on it too. We've just ordered a 3940 since we want to try to eliminate the possibility that it's hardware related -- the crashing and burning showed up under Solaris 2.5x86 as well.
