AS2.1 + Secure Path 3.0C + Veritas Vxfs/Vxvm=kernel panic

[Fredrik Uddin-Backman2]

Hi

Anyone experience the same? During a backup ie hard I/O (we do a vxfs snapshot volume and backs it up) I get a kernel panic almost every night. I suspect Veritas for this but its kind of hard to bring out any "proof" of it. My setup is as follows:

DL580G2 4GB RAM with latest BIOS and HP PSP
qla2312 driver version 6.06.50-29
RH AS2.1 Update 3, kernel 2.4.9-e35
Secure Path 3.0C
Veritas Foundation Suite 2.2
VRTSvxvm-3.2-update4_RH
VRTSvxfs-3.4.3-RH
4x100GB EVA volumes concatenated with VRTS to a 400 GB volume.

Screen dump attached...

Are you running the latest kernel update? Do you have a RH/Veritas support contract?

I suggest you contact RH first, not much i can tell you from the panic screenshot except that the scsi_mod is standard linux module (unless veritas changed some code in this module as well, I don't know since i'm not using Veritas software on linux).

Only software of above that changes scsi_mod is HP's EVA platform kit. makes a cheange in SCSI blackhole list and recompiles scsi_mod.
