Dear Daniel,
I have moved two disks to motherboard controller, cvsuped sources to
7.0-STABLE and recompiled kernel and world. gmirrored disks (RAID-1).
Server worked good for about 6 hours, and than again,
interrupt storm detected on irq22:; throttling interrupt source
gans# vmstat -i

Maybe there is a way not to move from hetzner? No additional devices
are attached to motherboard.
I remember that server worked on 6.2-STABLE without these storms, but
there were not so much processes.
Best Regards,
Stanislav

Hello Stanislav,

Dear Daniel,
Please tell me you had this storms only with 3ware 8006-2LP?
Actually, I do have them on the boxes which do not have the raid
controller. I have several boxes in hetzner. The ones that does not
have any additional devices attached to the motherboard seem like not
having the problem. However most of my machines have at least
additional NIC device.
Please note that my machines does not crash even when there is an
interrupt storm. On the other hand, they suffer from some performance
problems :/
The funny thing is that after reboot there's some silent period of
time, when the interrupts are OK. After the systems becomes to be
loaded more, the interrupt rate increases unless it reaches around
350k interrupt rate...
I have tried to play with the BIOS settings, nothing really helped.
Because as I remember on MSI motherboard controller, I have no
problems with FreeBSD 6.2, but when I upgraded to FreeBSD 7.0 that
storms appeared, but not so often as with 3ware.
P.S. Maybe I have to ask them to update BIOS? I am so happy with their
network and service, don't want to move to another server...
I have tried to ask them to update the BIOS in the past, AFAIR they
replied that the BIOS update is up to me...
