Message-ID: MIME-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: TEXT/PLAIN; charset=US-ASCII Sender: owner-freebsd-stable@FreeBSD.ORG Precedence: bulk List-ID: List-Archive: (Web Archive) List-Help: (List Instructions) List-Subscribe: List-Unsubscribe: X-Loop: FreeBSD.ORG As I posted before and read in several messages before FreeBSD 4.3-STABLE with cvsupdate since Friday 29th June freezes up and hungs!!! This happened since Friday now for three times. I read about a solution in increasing MAXDSIZ="(512*1024*1024)" and DFLDSIZ="(512*1024*1024)" in the kernel up to the real installed amount of memory, but this does not solve the problem. I increased it on our main system up to 2048 and on another up to 1024 as this reflects the installed memory. The main NFS server locked up again while the other machine still works. I decreased this value on all machines to 512. I do not know what's going on but it is really serious! All machines with SMP kernel run stable before Friday and with the last cvsupdate both SMP machines locked up in the night. Only pushing the reset button brought them back into live. Another phenomenon occured the same time regards the Linuxator. We use here Lahey Fortran F95 for Linux successfuly. Since today's cvsupdate on one of the SMP machines it core dumps with signal 11 (jwd_fort). On the other SMP machine it runs clear. Only the above mentioned kernel options has been changed ... -- MfG O.
