- Hello.
-
- Sometimes I receive the message like this on our Sun4/260

- and system reboot. Can anybody help me to understand what is the cause of such behavior?
-
- Configuration: Sun4/260 with 96Mb of mem and 4 SMD disks, SunOS 4.1.1b
-
- It seems to me that system fails when a large number of processes is working and an intensive disk
- usage is take place. Am I right? Is there any way to avoid such "panic"?
-
- Thank you,
- Andrei.
