Hi all,
Does anyone know of any issues with a dell poweredge 860?
I have one and the NMI number is getting high.
I have a digium card in the box and the NMI grows with or without the 
card in the box.
Any ideas? its fully updated. x86-64 5.2 system.
Thanks,
Jerry

Anyone knows any Cisco netflow analyzer that could run on Linux/Windows? I know that cisco ASDM works at somewhat level but too rough... For example, CIsco ASDM can only shows at IP level and only three types graph, like top 10 source Address, top ten destination level, or top ten services. but I want the analyzer to show different traffics from the same box when in need. Any suggestions?

With ECC memory, bad chips could cause an NMI, as could overheating or a loose riser card or just bad ram contact in the slots. If the system has enough memory to still boot with some removed, you could try there. You could also run Dell diagnostics on it. -- MailScanner is like deodorant...

I just checked a half dozen systems, all of them have pretty high NMI counters in /proc/interrupts(e.g. 254947480), and all of them are incrementing at least every second. No noticeable problems. Some of the systems are 3 years old, one of them is so new it''s not even available for sale until next month. nate

I called digium support and they are indicating the the NMI''s are an issue. I had never heard of that. so thats why I am inquiring. The issue I am having is a call is placed on the digium card (T1), a phone rings, when the phone is answered there is nothing. That is the symptoms. Digium had logged in and did what ever they do and they are thinking the NMI is an issue. Jerry

IIRC, Non-Maskable Interrupts are ones that must be dispatched immediately, not queued for handling. Hardware events that cause these interrupts, IIRC, include the hardware clock, HDs, serial devices, etc. Thinking just of the hardware clock alone you can see how NMI counts would always be increasing. I''d suggest doing what Nate did: look at some other systems to see what happens to their counts over a brief time and see if yours looks reasonable. As also suggested, a better approach is the diagnostic software. After-market vendors are notorious for crappy 1st level support. It''s not surprising the they suspect NMIs might be the problem. You might end up spending some real time before the failure is properly identified and rectified. HTH -- Bill

THe machine has 2 onboard NICS. I am only using eth0. eth1 has ONBOOT=no
What would be my next step? I dont think these items should be bothering 
a digium card?
