Bug#630552: linux-image-2.6.32-5-amd64: K8 ECC error

2011-07-14 Thread Dario Minnucci

Hi Ben,

After a few days monitoring this issue, I can confirm that the problem 
disappeared since new RAM
modules were installed.

So, feel free to close this bug report under your own criteria.

Thanks a lot for your help.

Regards,

 I've being configuring a new server for a couple of days now, and
 suddenly today I've started being flooded with this message at the
 console.

 Don't know if this is a clue but this message triggered while I was
 making a tarball from a mounted disk a while ago and appears
 randomly since then.

 I've rebooted the server was able to trigger again the message by
 re-running the tar command.

The most useful thing you can try to track this down is swapping out
the RAM and seeing if the errors go away.

See http://buttersideup.com/edacwiki/WhyAmIgettingMemoryErrors

I wish I had a better suggestion.  Thanks and good luck.

Hi Jonathan,

Thanks you and Ben for the quick reply!

I'll open a ticket at the provider asking for a RAM test and|or RAM replacement.


 See http://buttersideup.com/edacwiki/WhyAmIgettingMemoryErrors


I see.. thanks for the pointer.


 I wish I had a better suggestion.  Thanks and good luck.

It's a good suggestion for me.


Thanks again.

I've reopened the bug and will check how it got fixed in mainline Linux
(not sure whether that patch was applied or not).

I've got me RAM replaced a while ago and no sign og the flloding yet, so I 
guess no further testing
will be posible on my side. :(

Thanks for your interest anyway.

So we don't know whether those were genuine ECC error reports...?

These are the only references reported by dmesg now so, I guess (as you both 
suggested) was related
to faulty RAM modules.

Feel free to review the patch under you consideration.

Despite my new RAM, I'm open for testing if needed.

Thanks again.
