pfsense crashed

    Hi,

    I've just uploaded a crash report for my pfSense Cluster.
    It crashed at 3pm CET, the report should come from IP 217.11x.3x.34.
    Please can one of the devs check, what happened?

    regards,
    Christian

    Looks like a crash happened in the broadcom NIC bce0

    There is a small chance it's a driver bug, but a better chance it's hardware. Tough to say which though based on that alone.

    Hi,

    today at 8:15am the firewall encountered again a crash, so we activated the persistant carp maintenance modus to let the "slave" firewall take over.
    At around 9:26pm CET, the slave firewall encountered the same issue (crashed and rebooted), I've posted a crash report for this (at 9:50pm, from IP 217.11x.3x.34).
    The "slave" firewall is the same modell, Dell R610. So if this crash report results in the same driver/kernel problem, it is mostly a driver bug, as I don't think that both hardwares were broken in the same way.
    It did not happen with 2.4.3, we updated to 2.4.3p1 last wednesday.

    regards,
    Christian

    Same here, NEVER have had issues with pfsense until I updated to p1. It happed 3 times in the last hour and now its completely dead and I cant connect at all. Now I have people on my back and I have to commute to the site to reset it.

    Same swap error, system has never had a issue before

    Thanks Netgate

    swap error ? I vote for hardware issue right away.
    Next best : a pretty gore OOM error.

    Since when processor instructions = (== pfSEnse) wear out ?
    Devices break down. happens all the time.

    If you were running Windows on your device, would you thank Microsoft ?

    we have one R610 in cold reserve and exchanged the hardware of the first failed firewall yesterday and switched back to this master in the evening.
    This morning the firewall crashed again.
    So we reproduced this issue on 3 absolutly identical Dell R610.
    All have 16GB RAM, one 4x1GbitE Broadcom onboard, one 2x1GbitE Intel card, same bios, same lifecycle controller version.

    I'm pretty sure, that this is a issue with 2.4.3p1.

    Just for the possibility to reproduce the error for the development guys, we are had the issue with three similar dell r610 servers with the exact same setup.
    These servers do have an LAG Bond with one port on the boradcom and one port on the intel network cards. For both cards it is the first port. The Switches used are Brocade icx6610.

    In the logfiles we do see that the bce0 interface does crash and that the firewall will start to do the carp magic and directly return as the network interface will only be unavailable for 4 sek. We did see that some crashes happend two or three times in a row parted with a reboot of the firewall.

    Actually we did deactivate the boradcom network interface to quick and dirty solve the problem for us.

    Would anybody need the logfiles or how do we procede?

    Thanks

    Alex
