[Ocfs-users] Server crashed with Common/ocfsgencreate.c, Common/ocfsgenvote.c

[Ivan Wong]

Hi Experts,

We have a 4nodes RAC running and recently one is down due to hardware
(fibre optics card) failure. Since running on 3-nodes RAC, the surviving
server just keep crashing. We cannot figure out why is this happening
but checking /var/log/messages we have these error (notice the msg
before crashing at 8:32):

Power cycle the box will allow us to continue starting db, etc. But this
is the 4th time in two weeks. Since the only error found is ocfs, just
wondering if anyone have seen this? Or if it is OCFS related.

Our environment is:

x335-142:slr142:/e2open/home/oracle: 1000>rpm -qa | grep ocfs
ocfs-2.4.9-e-smp-1.0.9-9
ocfs-support-1.0.9-9
ocfs-tools-1.0.9-9
x335-142:slr142:/e2open/home/oracle: 1001>uname -a
Linux x335-142 2.4.9-e.25smp #1 SMP Fri Jun 6 18:11:40 EDT 2003 i686
unknown

Appreciate any feedback.
