i've got two systems, one a pentium 233 with adaptec 2940, scsi, using vinum running a big postgresql database, and a new one, dual pentium 550, dual adaptec 29160, not using vinum, and another big postgresql database. the first system runs 3.4-stable and gets spontaneous reboots infrequently, and there are no messages (dmesg, console or syslog) indicating why it rebooted. initially, i though it might be the vinum. the new system runs 4.0-stable, doesn't have vinum, and is spontaneously rebooting (several times in 48 hrs). again no messages indicting the problem. postgres runs as a non-root user. on the second system, it has rebooted during heavy database processing, but mysterously, has rebooted again within 30-40 minutes, even though the database processing doesn't automatically restart (ie. the second reboot was not caused by heavy processing, as there was no processing happening). has anybody had similar issues? solutions? suggestions? -- [ Jim Mercer jim@reptiles.org +1 416 506-0654 ] [ Reptilian Research -- Longer Life through Colder Blood ] [ Don't be fooled by cheap Finnish imitations; BSD is the One True Code. ] To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-hackers" in the body of the message
