Hi, I'm experiencing sporadic kernel hangs on different machines running Ubuntu Natty (rsyslog 4.6.4). The machines need to be rebooted to recover. What I noticed after the machines come back is that syslog and kern.log have not been updated for some time (anywhere from a few minutes to several hours) prior to the hang. Interestingly, the updates of syslog and kern.log stopped at different times. Whether this has anything to do with the later hang or is an early indication that something is wrong, I don't know. If I were to catch a machine in this state, what can I look at to try to figure out why logging to the filesystem stopped? I can't run rsyslog in debug mode. I could attach gdb to the running rsyslog process but don't know what to look for.
Thanks ...Juerg _______________________________________________ rsyslog mailing list http://lists.adiscon.net/mailman/listinfo/rsyslog http://www.rsyslog.com/professional-services/ What's up with rsyslog? Follow https://twitter.com/rgerhards
