Start with the release notes for each patch after the patch you are running. See if something shows a resemblance to your problem. Look for problems from the reported client type and arserverd.
Client: User kishah from *Remedy Administrator* (protocol 13) at IP Next find out what the user was doing that is referenced in the stack trace: Client: User *kishah* from *Remedy Administrator* (protocol 13) at IP If you do it again does the server crash? If so headed down the right track. If you come up empty there, pull the api, filter, and sql logs up to the point that the crash occurs. Once you have those, you need to see what was going on with the rpcid/queue referenced in the stack trace. RPC Id: *25964* RPC Call: 82 (GMAL) RPC Queue: *390600* Client: User kishah from Remedy Administrator (protocol 13) at IP A core dump can be helpful as well if the above does not lead to useful information. I'm just guessing here, but I would bet that not buffering the log entries may lead to more useful logs. My thinking is that buffered log entries may get written to disk if the server crashes. Where do you see the malloc error? Mid-tier logs, web browser, somewhere else? If on the mid-tier, I would watch the memory usage of your java processes. If on the Remedy server, I would watch the memory usage of the Remedy related processes.
