Howdie, I have a fairly new 7.2 installation. It runs as a server supplying services for Web (Apache), Mail (postfix), Database (MySQL), and DNS (Bind 9.x)
This machine runs fine for about 5-6 days, then it grinds to a halt with the response slowing way down. Eventually it stops responding and a reboot is the only option. Resources seem ok when this happens.. although last time I saw it slowing, I noticed several CROND processes in the process list, but could not determine what it was actually doing.. The system logs show nothing out of the ordinary, nor can I find any reported fault anyway within the system Typically a re-boot solves it although on one occasion, the GRUB stage2 file was corrupt and needed a re-write. The system is RH7.2 (running kernel 2.4.9-13, using ext3 file system and also Software RAID1. Can anyone shed some light or point me in some direction. I really need this box to be more reliable.. As a side note (OR even just to try and eliminate one aspect), How, or can you convert a ext3 file system back to ext2 ?? Any known issues, help or pointers appreciated, Darryl _______________________________________________ Redhat-list mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] https://listman.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/redhat-list
