hi all,
today my server crashes. (syslog see below)
i was able to connect to but the machines behaviour was strange.
load was above 152. i couldnt stop/kill the postmaster process. ps just
hangs in the middle of the processlist.
i suspect to optimistic shared memory settings in sysctl.conf for the
reason, but i am not shure.
anyone has similar experiences or is it a linux/kernel related problem?
thanks
thilo hille
