[06:36] <fabbione> neuralis: so what's the bug?
[06:37] <newz2000> Hey foks, got an opportunity to try and diagnose a problem we've been having with several of our servers and dapper's kernel.
[06:37] <newz2000> foks == folks
[06:37] <newz2000> We have 6 servers and while they boot ok with dapper, the network doesn't come up.
[06:37] <fabbione> newz2000: ok.. mind to explain?
[06:38] <fabbione> does it work in edgy?
=== siretart [i=siretart@ubuntu/member/siretart]  has joined #ubuntu-kernel
[06:38] <newz2000> we don't have physical access to the server, so we need to be careful...
[06:38] <siretart> hi
[06:38] <newz2000> can we test edgy's kernel reasonably safely?
[06:39] <newz2000> (siretart is the admin for the server we're currently diagnosing)
[06:39] <fabbione> newz2000: hold on.. what kind of server? can we get lspci? dmesg and all the other stuff?
[06:39] <fabbione> ah ok
[06:39] <fabbione> siretart: we need the usual things to understand what's the problem
[06:40] <fabbione> does the kernel recognize the eth at all?
[06:40] <siretart> fabbione: 2.6.12 without any problems
[06:40] <newz2000> I have an idea, where we could create an rc script that waits 5 min and tries to ping or something. If failure, replaces grub menu and reboots.
[06:40] <fabbione> what chipset is that?
[06:41] <newz2000> Grabing whatever diagnostic we need.
[06:41] <fabbione> newz2000: one thing at a time...
[06:41] <siretart> fabbione: http://paste.debian.net/14983
[06:41] <newz2000> you bet
[06:41] <siretart> fabbione: this is the kernel output when 2.6.15 is up (and no network available)
[06:41] <siretart> >> lspci
[06:41] <siretart> 0000:00:12.0 Ethernet controller: VIA Technologies, Inc. VT6102 [Rhine-II]  (rev 78)
[06:41] <siretart> 0000:00:12.0 0200: 1106:3065 (rev 78)
[06:42] <siretart> anything esle I can provide?
[06:42] <fabbione> one second..
[06:43] <fabbione> siretart: i guess those machines don't have iLO or something like that.. do they?
[06:44] <fabbione> i would try to boot with acpi=off 
[06:44] <siretart> iLO?
[06:44] <fabbione> siretart: remote console management
[06:44] <fabbione> that **** SET: Misaligned resource pointer: debbb722 Type 07 Len 0 is kind of scary
[06:44] <siretart> fabbione: no that I knew. If it has, heno or newz2000 should know about
[06:44] <newz2000> we don't have remote mangement.
[06:45] <siretart> I would have tried pci=noacpi
[06:45] <newz2000> Which is why I sugested the auto-reboot idea before we start testing too much.
[06:45] <fabbione> who has phisical access to the machines?
[06:45] <newz2000> server admins
[06:45] <newz2000> not us
[06:45] <siretart> I was reading grub manual for how to setup a failsafe grub with autoreboot in case the machine doesn't come up, wanted to try that tomorrow
[06:45] <fabbione> who are the server admins?
[06:45] <siretart> serverpronto.com
[06:45] <fabbione> ok
[06:46] <newz2000> siretart: the computer boots ok now.
[06:46] <newz2000> disabling acpi probably won't change that
[06:46] <newz2000> we need a "reboot on no network" I think.
[06:46] <fabbione> newz2000: if you don't have phisical access, that's the only way
[06:47] <fabbione> just make sure to do it properly
[06:47] <newz2000> fabbione: Seen anything out there pre-made?
[06:47] <fabbione> nope
[06:47] <fabbione> anyway i would still try the acpi=off
[06:48] <fabbione> drivers/acpi/resources/rslist.c:                              "Misaligned resource pointer %p", resource));
[06:49] <newz2000> what kind of diagnostic info would be useful from a running but non-network accessible kernel?
[06:49] <newz2000> Something of the form of xyz > /tmp/reboot.log
[06:49] <siretart> the thing is that I need to leave RSN, but will be available tomorrow again
[06:50] <newz2000> siretart: let me make sure I have access to the server. I can do this.
[06:50] <fabbione> newz2000: i would check if arp is working to see where the driver breaks.. mii-tools to see if the chip is powered on properly and there is network cable detected
[06:50] <fabbione> once you have arp/mii-tols you can go up for an icmp test with ping
[06:51] <newz2000> siretart, what is the IP on that server?
[06:51] <fabbione> you don't want to save in /tmp
[06:51] <fabbione> it's cleared on each reboot
[06:51] <fabbione> use /root or something that's permanent
[06:51] <newz2000> oh. Yes, that's bad. 
[06:51] <newz2000> ok
[06:52] <newz2000> siretart: nm, I'm in.
[06:52] <newz2000> siretart: can you withstand a little downtime if I work on this for a bit?
=== newz2000 assumes so or it wouldn't have been upgraded
[06:54] <siretart> newz2000: it would be nice if you could announce that on #ubuntu-motu
[06:54] <newz2000> ok.
[06:54] <siretart> newz2000: and shutdown vsftp, postgres and apache2
[06:55] <siretart> these services are needed for revu, if they are off, nothing bad can happen [tm] 
[06:55] <newz2000> won't that happen gracefully on reboot? (i.e. aren't your rc.? scripts good?
[06:55] <siretart> sure, they will be started
[06:55] <fabbione> and shutdown too
[06:55] <siretart> I'm rather afraid of broken imports while shutting down
[06:56] <siretart> but thats only an unlikely chance to happen
[06:56] <siretart> more likeley ppl on #ubuntu-motu will screem
[06:56] <newz2000> ok, so I should announce, and wait for people who might be working to finish before rebooting.
[06:57] <siretart> that would be nice. but otoh, we are >< close before release, and revu isn't likely to be used ATM
[06:57] <siretart> we have other things to do at this point
[06:58] <newz2000> ok, I'll announce.
[07:02] <siretart> ok, need to run now
[07:02] <newz2000> siretart: thanks
[07:02] <siretart> I'll read the backlog in this channel!
[07:02] <siretart> newz2000: thanks that I leave now? ;)
[07:03] <newz2000> siretart: thanks for giving us the opportunity to figure this out. :D

[07:06] <newz2000> any suggestions for a better way to ensure it doesn't run continually?
[07:06] <newz2000> any other useful data that can be included there?

[07:38] <fabbione> newz2000: yes
[07:38] <newz2000> thanks. Just giving people a chance to finish then will try it.

[08:07] <newz2000> fabbione and others: acpi=off didn't seem to work. I've opened a reboot ticket as my reboot script also didn't work.
[08:07] <newz2000> This implies something else is going on, because I tested the reboot script and believe it works.
[08:08] <newz2000> The server company has a note on their support site explaining a patch may be needed to support the hardware.
