Hello...
Sorry for the delay in sending this, I should have sent it last
week. Two bugs:
1: kernel-2.4.5-SGI_XFS_1.0.1_PR3.i{3,5,6}86.rpm is missing the aacraid
modules (aacraid is for adaptec oem hardware raid, used in all/most dell
servers)
Patches can be found on http://domsch.com/linux/
Matt Domsch has patches for these raid controllers.
I will have to see if I can make a decent patch fit and make a clean patch.
2: I tried kernel-smp-2.4.3-SGI_XFS_1.0.1_PR3.i686.rpm on one of my
production web servers running XFS. After ~15 minutes it crashed. I got
someone to go to the colo and reset it. I watched it for a while and ~15
minutes later the load started shooting through the roof (~150). I took
it out of the web rotation before it crashed and restarted back with
kernel-smp-2.4.2-SGI_XFS_1.0. Now it is stable again.
More details please, what does it do beside webserving in what setup is the
machine configured.
Do the logfiles or dmesg have any messages, are there hung processes is
this a highmem machine?
Cheers

Every program has two purposes one for which
it was written and another for which it wasn't
I use the last kind.
