Montly kernel panic
0%
Description
In a regular interval, every month, we experience a kernel panic. As the appliance is connected via a USB console cable we are luckily able to resolve it remotely.
The console shows this repeatedly, almost flooding the screen.

Sending Ctrl+C stops that and triggers a reboot. Luckily we found that workaround :)

Attached are the output recovered from the console with screen and the info and textdump files offered by the webinterface. Let us know if any other logs are relevant before they are rotated.

Have you tested the RAM on your appliance to verify this isn't a memory issue? Page faults are typically an issue with RAM and if it's happening frequently enough, it could be intermittently failing hardware.

Thank you for the response. There doesn't seem to be a memtest included, so the best option is to use the bootable media with USB from https://memtest.org/, I guess?

yes that would work or whatever flavor bootable distribution that contains diagnostic memory testing
