Also, I have seen the load take off just prior to this condition. The load grows beyond 20 even though the machine is running the same tasks every day and many days go without any incident. Some of the processes continue to run despite the load (we have SNMP trap server collecting data that keeps collecting data). We have upgraded 2.1.0 to 2.1.5 (without a complete re-install) about a week ago and this problem happened twice already. Is this a known issue with 2.1.5? Thanks. --- Mike Tsirulnikov Campus Network Services, UCLA (310) 825-8045
