Im using on prodution enviroment and this machine keep solid as rock for many months.
Im using only openvz machines now, i can do anyting to fix it or send any info to diagnose this situation if is a security issue (anyting is wong on this kernel), proxmox bug or someting simillar?

If not a proxmox bug have a way to discover if a hardware fail or not?

Anyone pass on simillar experience?

Best Regards 4 All.

 

[tom]

you are using an old version.

I suggest you go for 2.6.18 kernel. see http://pve.proxmox.com/wiki/Proxmox_VE_Kernel

 

[rmoglia]

2.6.24-9-pve is more old then 2.6.18?

Any diferences beetween 2.6.24-10 and 2.6.18?

Im using only openvz now.

 

[rmoglia]

Im installed 2.6.24-10-pve and 2.6.18 on my virtual machine to test i have the same enviroment and version like a prod enviroment (clone).
Tested 2.6.18 like you sugested and ask for manitence mode press control-D to check filesystem every time i booted with then.
Previously instaled 2.6.24-9-pve using 2.6.24-10-pve boot normally without ask for fsck and manitence mode.

It´s a Possible BUG?
Antecipated Best Regards.

Do you have correct time in the bios?

 

[rmoglia]

I don´t no it´s a remote machine on local machine is a virtual machine.

i will be execute hwclock -w to certify correct sync between hardware clock and system clock.

Any relation about hardware clock time?

 

[dietmar]

Any relation about hardware clock time?

When the system boot it is using HW clock time.

 

[rmoglia]

Yes i discoverd it with my friend before NTP use hardware clock.
