We have a tool on our website called "breakin" that is Linux 2.6.25.9 patched with K8 and K10f Opteron EDAC reporting facilities. It can usually find and identify failed RAM in fifteen minutes (two hours at most). The EDAC patches to the kernel aren't that great about naming the correct memory rank, though. Make sure you have multibit (sometimes says 4-bit) ECC enabled in your BIOS. http://www.advancedclustering.com/software/breakin.html _______________________________________________ Beowulf mailing list, [email protected] To change your subscription (digest mode or unsubscribe) visit http://www.beowulf.org/mailman/listinfo/beowulf
