Hi all,

I am trying to get SXCR B66 running on an HP DL385 G1 with 3x300G disks
on a Smart Array 6i controller. I have managed to get the operating
system installed several times; I use the HP-supplied CPQary3 drivers
and the system appears to install fine. The only slight wrinkle is that
the /etc/inet/hosts file does not get an entry for the system's hostname
during installation, so I need to add that manually after the first
boot. Everything else works as normal.

The problem is after about 90 minutes of uptime, the system becomes
completely unresponsive; network requests are left hanging and the
console does not echo typed characters. The console cursor is still
blinking. To reboot requires a hard reset, and after another 90 minutes
the same thing happens again.

I have updated the system firmware for all available components to their
latest release; I have reinstalled a number of times; and I have tried
different disk configurations, but always with the same end result. I
have used the server's iLO software to generate an NMI in an attempt to
force a system reboot, but without success. I am using the latest disk
drivers from HP.

And that's me out of ideas! Has anyone else had this problem, or can
anyone suggest further steps to get this working? I have 4 other servers
up and running B66 with no problems (2x Dell, 1xHP DL160, 1x white box).

Thanks in advance,

Chris
