Re: [pfSense] pfSense IP stack crashing.

Hmh,

3 things you could try come up to my mind.

1. I'd try another SD-Card (if you are using nanoBSD, my guess is, that you use 
an SD-Card?). Put the Master in permanent maintenance mode and shut it down, 
take out the SD-Card and check for errors. Even if there are none, copy the 
card and use the new one.
2. Freezing normally could mean bad memory. Did you try a live CD and a mem 
stress test for at least 24 hours? If not, do that too.
3. Unusual and also very unlikely but maybe your box got hacked somehow? Turn 
on the remote logging feature and log your messages to another syslogd-Server 
and see what you get when the system gets unresponsive.

HTH,

 I am using an industrial 4GB USB DOM. It is less than 3 years old so I am 
surprised that it could be the issue, but hey it's technology so I should not 
be surprised.
  
 Thanks

So… you don’t know how well it will work in pfSense, then.

Re: [pfSense] pfSense IP stack crashing.

2015-10-15 Thread ED Fochler
Yeah, that sounds like the right path.   Original post mentioned DOM, which I 
don’t understand.  I don’t know that spin-rite has any value on SSD. I would be 
inclined to do a fresh OS install and import the configuration to eliminate 
data bit rot and hacking of the OS as possible problems.  I had a mangled 
config that caused instability for me 6 months ago, and after new hardware and 
OS I finally just rebuilt the config from scratch and everything was fine.  
This was after a year of service and no significant changes on nano-BSD on 
compact-flash.

Although a failing NIC can throw OS crashing nonsense and wouldn’t show up 
unless under load.  It doesn’t sound like you have the option to swap out 
network cards but that is as likely the problem as anything else.

 Thank you for the ideas. I am leaning towards the DOM (storage)  The lock up 
seems to occur after about 15 min. The odd thing is serial console does not 
lock up. I just don't see anything in the logs to explain this.
