I've got several DL380 G2 running 6-STABLE and 6.1-RELEASE without any hitch, both in UP and SMP configurations. ACPI is disabled, OS set to 'Linux'. Other BIOS settings are default, firmware levels are as of Proliant Software Maintenance CD 7.40. I would rather guess you encountered a hardware issue (faulty power supply; non-identical stepping of CPUs?). OTOH as you're talking about a couple of machines, this is not very likely. Are you sure, your servers have got the redundant fan kit in place as this is mandatory for SMP operations? -cs
