Daryl,

Would help if you can provide more details on how the issue is
reproducible in your setup.

What is the CPU and memory utilization when the issue is reproduced ?
Top output should be able to provide this info.

What is the exact stress which is causing this issue?

Thanks ,
Raghavendra. B

I am relieved to know this is a known issue!  Thank you so much for
letting me know.  I will try the modprobe.conf route for the moment to
see if that helps.

I only have 1 node :)  The network traffic load is very minimal,
currently averaging around 256kbps...  The machine is just answering
database queries over a local gigE network.

Well, it has only happened twice (the past two days) early in the
morning.

I did not have it enabled until this morning after the second failure.
I will check it out if it happens again, hopefully not! :)
