Firewall Frequently Locking Up, Requiring Hard Reboot

<< < (7/7)

franco:
Your crash dumps seem erratic and not related to network drivers... I would suspect a general hardware issue that manifests itself under system strain in unpredictable ways.

Another one... odd if it were hardware issues across three separate sets of hardware, but maybe I'm just extraordinarily unlucky this time. I'll try swapping out the RAM and/or SSD and see if either of those resolves it.

milkywaygoodfellas:
I figured it out - bad RAM. It tested fine on the first device but just to be sure I tested it again... this time it threw so many errors memtest86 couldn't even complete a full pass.

D'oh.

franco:
That would explain it. Maybe not all hardware is affected like this... would be best to keep track of traces separately for each machine. Maybe the other two have a single panic to trace.

It was the same RAM modules in all three of them in this case as I just swapped them into each box, but you are right that keeping track of which machine generated which trace is a good idea in the future. Though hopefully with new RAM it won't be necessary...
