Hi everyone!

We are currently having severe problems with our Alpha 2100, which
crashes regularly, up to several times a day :-(
The crash-data file invariably says there was a 'kernel memory fault'; the
stack trace that follows varies.
Our DEC representative really has no clue as to what is happening here...

We are running DEC OSF/1 3.2 on an AlphaServer 2100 with 384 MB of memory.
We also have RAID running, and one of the RAID shadowed partitions is
NFS vs. 3 exported to the outside world (an Alpha 1000 box).

The software we run is multithreaded and uses SYSV IPC facilities, as well
as UDP/TCPIP over sockets.

Is there anyone out there who has experienced similar problems?
E-mail preferred, if possible we'll post a summary of answers.

Thanks very much in advance,


Han Weegink
