Tracking Down Intermittent Kernel Panics

["David" <david@lolling.org>]

Hi,

I have a number of identical generic servers running Red Hat 7.3
in a server farm.  All of these servers are dedicated to running
the same application, which requires Red Hat 7.3.

One server is experiencing a kernel panic at what appears to be
random intervals.  At this point we feel the problem is hardware
related. The other servers have never had this problem.  We have
also tried Red Hat 9.0 on this machine in the past and it also
experienced kernel panics.

We have run serveral utilities to try to stress different components
trying to get another kernel panic so we can possibly pinpoint
the hardware problem.

So far we have run things like memtest and bonnie.

At this point we are at a loss as to how to track the problem
down and fix it.

Does anyone know of any other diagnostics or resources that would
help trace the kernel panics back to the source?

Thanks,

David
