Usually the discs are completely wedged and nothing will recover them :-( I see the same as everyone else - stuff in memory continues to work (even web pages that were in RAM can still be served, so the 5minute poll alarm doesnt go off unfortunately). I hadnt associated it with network activity (I was looking at disc activity) but it is interesting that other people see the network as being the cause. I *do* see a lot of "tl0 underrun" messages. > [ I'd say this is the time for developers to speak up ;-) ] Assuming we have giiven them enough information - sadly random freezeups with no errormessages and no real repeatabaility are very hard to debug. -pcf.
