Thanks to several folks who answered, I found the correct patch for
this in duv32gas00004-19980219.tar.
Original question:
We have an Alphaserver 2100 with 2 5/250 CPUs, running 3.2G. Twice
this week (Sunday night and now Thursday night) it has crashed in the
same way:
simple_lock: time limit exceeded
pc of caller: 0xfffffc000042d368
lock address: 0xfffffc0007338238 (Sunday)
lock address: 0xfffffc000725de38 (Thursday)
current lock state: 0x0000000000282e59
(cpu=0, pc=0xfffffc0000282e58, busy)
panic ( cpu 0 ): simple_lock: time limit exceeded
syncing disks...
and it hangs there.
Since this has happened twice in fairly close succession, I am
concerned. What could this be?
Thanks, everyone.
