Hi folks,
At approximately 1741Z, host faustino appeared to undergo some sort
of lockup or memory starvation and ceased passing network packets.
I was able to see kernel errors scrolling by on the console, but
unable to get a login prompt.
By approximately 1751Z it spontaneously recovered, just as I was
half way through telling the masterswitch to power cycle it. (so I
stopped!)
I'm not sure exactly what happened yet and am not convinced it was
regular memory exhaustion so I am going to be keeping a close eye on
this server.
Apologies for the disruption.
Cheers,
Andy
