I have many different centos machines that are hanging

When the machines hang, there is no access to the console
or remote access(ssh, rsh, etc).
Do you mean that there's no *access* to the console, or that it doesn't
*respond* on the console?
X is frozen, no way to switch the console(i.e. Ctrl-Alt-F1,
Ctrl-Alt-Backspace),
and no way to access the machine remotely.
if you don't need X running, I'd stop loading it entirely (edit
/etc/inittab, and change the default runlevel to 3), and before your app
hangs, log onto the system console, and leave this command running as
root...
# tail -f /var/log/messages /var/log/secure
this way, any error logging will be displayed as the system crashes.
X is required - though I could accomplish the same thing by
logging in remotely. So far, the log files haven't shown anything
interesting.
