I've just updated a low-volume fileserver to 5.4-stable (as of Sep 13), and ever since, whenever I try to move or copy a directory onto one of its NFS shares, it causes a crash. I do not have a crash dump (no dumpdev enabled, unfortunately), but I can reproduce it quite easily. The client is a 6.0-BETA3 machine, but I have no other NFS clients to test from (easily). Is this something known and being worked on, or should I try to gather some debugging information?

As others have noted, Tor's patch appears to be a total solution to the recent instability the PAE patch introduced. So, if you're experiencing panics with a recent kernel, or are in a position to stress a machine, please cvsup and give it a test!

Greetings all- I have a new X4200 that I''m getting ready to deploy. It has four 146 GB SAS drives. I''d like to setup the box for maximum redundancy on the data stored on these drives. Unfortunately, it looks like ZFS boot/root aren''t really options at this time. The LSI Logic controller in this box only supports either a RAID0 array with all four disks, or a RAID 1

...On Jupiter, previous to the Jun 20th upgrade, I was able to generate two cores off of a Jun 6th kernel, so something between Jun 6th and Jun 20th has changed ... Does anyone know of *anything* that may have been commit'd in that period of time that could have affected how a crash dumps to the dumpdev? Note that the servers don't make much use of swap as it is ... one of the machines that is exhibiting the problem has been up 4+days now, and swap used is: pluto# pstat -s Device 1K-blocks Used Avail Capacity Type /dev/da0s1b 8388480 10652 8377828 0% Interle...

Hi everybody, today I met the following problems on my freebsd box. I had a USB stick of opensolaris bootable USB image and tried to mount it on my fbsd box. The first time, when I tried to mount the usb device, my system freezed and then rebooted giving me one core in my dumpdev. When I tried to redo the mounting, the kernel informed me that the filesystem needed to be fsck'd before mounted, or else I should have tried to mount it ro. When I tried to mount it with the read-only option set, the kernel panicked once more, and another core was dumped on my dumpdev. R...

Hello, I have not had much time to research this problem yet, so please let me know what further information I might be able to provide. This weekend I attempted to upgrade a computer from 8.2-RELEASE-p3 to 8.4 using freebsd-update. After I rebooted to test the new kernel, I got a panic. I had to take a picture of the screen. Here's a condensed version: panic: page fault cpuid = 1 KDB:

Hello, Since FreeBSD 9.1 I have strange problems with the distribution. Some servers are rebooting without any kernel panic, instanly. First i thought it's a problem with my KVM system, but one of my FreeBSD under a Dell R210 have the same problem. The servers concerned are now: - Monitoring server - LDAP test server - Some other servers, randomly (not in production). First i thought it's
