Hi guys,

does anyone here have a root server at Hetzner.de? If so, could you share which kernel are you using?

I have a few servers at Hetzner; the first one has been running for about 2 years now without any problem and I am more than happy with it. However I don't have such a luck with a few servers ordered later. They all have the problem described in http://forum.openvz.org/index.php?t=msg&goto=33575

At the moment my workaround is to bypass connection tracking, ie my firewall acts like a stateless one. Not a good solution, but I don't have a better one. FWIW, the first server has different hardware than the later ones.

Recently I upgraded one server to debian lenny and try the new openvz kernel 2.6.26 coming with lenny. It was running great for about 3 weeks, and yesterday I got this message:

Mar 31 08:24:02 eu4 kernel: [1885581.110279] BUG: soft lockup - CPU#1 stuck for 62s! [swapper:0]


I did some googling and it seems this problem is not openvz-specific; many people have this problem and a fix is still not available.

Anyway, my main question is: which kernel do you use, or do you recommend me to try?

thanks,
Tony

PS: I run debian etch on all servers, with kernel 2.6.18 from http://download.openvz.org/debian-systs
