How stable and successful is HT support via SMP?
(I presume it is supported)

I have a P4-3.06 with HT support....

I had a 5.3 machine with an HT/SMP kernel (no other customizations)
and the server would randomly reboot. Could be a few hours
or could be a week.

I setup a new machine (same exact model and hardware) and installed 5.3 
again on this machine and the same thing happened.

So thinking it was the network, I disconnected the ethernet and still it 
reboots within some time. I then ran a debug kernel and it ran for weeks 
with no crash.

When it did crash, there was no logs and no errors. The servers are on a 
huge stable UPS. Solaris runs on these machines for months.

Anyone see this? anyone have any ideas?
