I've got a pair of HA servers I'm trying to get into production.
Here are some specs :

This typically means bad RAM
While I won't rule this out, my local hardware vendor does a 48 hour
burn-in
When the servers are shipped to you, do you open them and make sure
all modules are seated completely, and haven't been dislodged by the
shipping?
+1 on hardware issues...I won't name names, but once recently I ordered
two identical systems and I had to send one of them back FOUR times: two
bad raid controllers, bad ram, and bad motherboard. This was all started
about 4 weeks into production. I don't know if the vendor was actually
doing burn-in, but I've seen pleny of damage from shipping. Do your own
memory testing and line up another (nearly identical) server to verify
the problem.
Good luck,
Jed
