All,
I have been playing with watchdog on my systems in the past few
months. One Fedora 8 older Tyan board with hardware watchdog, and one
new Fedora 9 Asus server board with hard ware watchdog. While using this
in its normal configuration everything works fine, and stable. I have
run into one problem with it. While over using my new server for I/O
intensive activities, I launched the load to 27 (one minute load
average) which triggered the default software watchdogs limit of 24 max
1 minute load average. It did what it was supposed to, and rebooted the
system. Tweaking problems remain on this box and I need to set it up to
live through a full reboot (it fails a check during boot and reboots the
box half way through a box, which is a glaring personal error in
configuration).
The other system I have is rather stable and has no problems with
the watchdog and it runs as I require it. What I am after from the group
with this is what repair style programs are being used, and examples of
such, if anyone is using this. I am working on writing my own, but I am
not sure where I want to go, and am looking for good idea's and gotcha's
on this as well.
Thanks in advance,
Seann
