I have an OI installation that seems to crash about every 20 days. Locks up
completely and needs a hard reset. Not very much fun.
Question I have is where would I start to look to see why? I first thought it
may be due to scrubbing load on the LSI controller but that is not the case.
It crashed today hours after a curb was successful at 2AM.
I am a new OI user and would really appreciate a bit of help on this one.
Basically looking for a crash dump of some sort and the locations that I have
looked at don't really help.
System is
i3 CPU
32GB Ram
LSI SAS2008
Intel SAS expander
13 SATA 7200RPM drives
Asus MB
Is there any evidence of a crash in the logs?
Look in /var/adm/messages for any clues and under /var/crash/<hostname>
for any dumps.
I'm not sure if there is a version of Solaris CAT (Crash Analysis Tool)
that works with OI. If there is and you have a dump that's the best
place to look.
If there isn't any evidence of a crash, there's a fair chance you have a
hardware problem. I'm guessing that with an i3 motherboard you won't
have ECC memory, so running memtest86 for a while would be a good start.
