I was attempting to shut down a VPS with vzctl and I got the following message:

Message from syslogd@corbusier at Sat Apr 22 15:08:21 2006 ...
corbusier kernel: Oops: 0000 [1]

Message from syslogd@corbusier at Sat Apr 22 15:08:21 2006 ...
corbusier kernel: CR2: ffff820401003128

What does this mean? I have had problems with the server crashing using the previous patch (026test005). However the current patch has been running for a day without any real problems.

I am using using kernel.org 2.6.16 patched with 026test009 running on an athlon 64. I am using debian, with vzctl 3.0.0 ported using alien.

first, I would like to ask you to check /var/log/messages for full kernel report of oops, including registers and call traces, since 2 lines you provided are the most irrelevant part of it and don't help Confused

next, if this 2.6.16 kernels oops very often on your hardware I really recommend to run memtest86 and memtest+cpuburn. 009 kernel should be stable enough (at least on VPS stop Smile

))) )

Here is the output in the kernel log. Its kind of strange that its saying the number of IP tables entries in virtual server 101 is exceeding the limit (since i haven't tried to run iptables in any of them). As I understand it, cpuburn doesn't work on K8 cpus. Any suggestions?

If you can reproduce it, please, try
echo 1 > /proc/sys/debug/decode_call_traces
first.

Also, your calltrace looks wierd to me... There's no places in our kernel where address is printed with "[%s+%d/%d]" format.
Did you patch non-vanilia kernel or apply some other patches rather than openvz one?

It is impossible to replicate the problem. When I reported the error, it was probably the first time the server had crashed while I was doing something. Last night for example, the system crashed after 9 days, with no notification in kern.log.

The kernel was built from vanilla sources. However, it was compiled using the debian kernel-package tools.

I have turned on /proc/sys/debug/decode_call_traces. Now is it time to wait and see what happens?

what do you mean by crashed w/o messages in kern.log? Maybe, you mean /var/log/messages?
Was soomething on the screen? Did it hang or reboot?

Sorry about mentioning kern.log (its a debianism). Its similar to /var/log/messages.

Unfortunately I don't console access to this server (its stuck in a datacentre). The server just hung, rather than being rebooted.

The problem could be completely unrelated to the OpenVZ patch, I am just exploring all possibilities as the people who I rent the server of are sure that there are no hardware problems with the server.

Is it possible to setup a serial console in this datacenter?
If not, maybe you are able to setup netconsole which can help to collect kernel messages before the hang?
