Hi,
I wonder if anyone has any idea what the cause of these two problems
is (and if they're related).
I've got a Thunder K8SRE with two dual core Opteron processors and
eight 1 GB SDRAM sticks in it.
Over the last few months I've been experiencing weird crashes with it
which at first I thought was because of a dodgy motherboard, so I
replaced the motherboard, then it looked like the PSU was dodgy (well,
it stopped working), so that got replaced. Finally when that didn't
fix the problem I replaced the CPUs. Unfortunately the problem
continued.
At the time I was running some ancient version of Debian unstable
AMD64 along with a not up to date version of Xen, so I decided the
cause could be software related. So I've now installed Debian stable
and the latest Xen stable source tarball from Xensource.
Booting in to SMP mode resulted in this:
May 16 00:43:37 weebl kernel: Timer ISR/3: Time went backwards:

etc...
Which appears to be this bug:
http://bugzilla.xensource.com/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=195
So I rebooted with nosmp and things seemed much better. This was at
1AM, but when I woke up this morning although all the domains were
reachable by ping (the box is colocated) I couldn't ssh to them or
access them on port 80 etc.
I rebooted the system remotely back in to the earlier version of Xen /
Debian and found the following errors in the log:

Has anyone got any idea why this is occuring? I'm completely out of ideas.
Many months ago I thought the random crashing could be because of RAM,
but it's all ECC RAM, and with any of the RAM sticks in it would still
randomly crash.
I'm not sure where to go next - what to try. Does anyone know what the
cause is, or have any idea how to diagnose it?
Thanks

On two occasions, I have been asked [by members of Parliament], "Pray,
Mr. Babbage, if you put into the machine wrong figures, will the right
answers come out?" I am not able to rightly apprehend the kind of
confusion of ideas that could provoke such a question.
