The computer in question is a dual 450 MHz PII with 256 MB RAM and 512 MB
of swap. There is a single IDE hard disk and two SCSI hard disks
installed. We're not using lvm or md.
The file system is partitioned as follows (all xfs)
Filesystem 1k-blocks Used Available Use% Mounted on
/dev/hda1 3071616 1394348 1677268 46% /
/dev/hda8 3585696 144 3585552 1% /exp/atlas

And I was running this script (on our hepserv1 machine) when the kernel
panic occured (on our hepserv2 machine):
#!/bin/bash
RSYNC_RSH=/usr/bin/ssh
export RSYNC_RSH
cd /
echo "===> rsyncing hepserv1:/exp/users -> hepserv2:/exp/users"
rsync -rulHpogtS --delete --force /export/users/ root@hepserv2:/export/users/
Cheerio,
Paul
