Hadn't considered that a user level debugging solution. I'll give it  
a try.

We had considered it possibly related to our mix because the SuperMicro
dual xeon we are trying to replace it with was rebooting (not hanging)
without any error messages every 15-20 days. I thought it was failing
hardware. It's on 6.1 R P10. Maybe related in some way.

So much to learn, so little time. Thank you for your response.
