        As I said before, those won't be created for hard locks, only for panics/crashes.

          Just seen this come out: "Fri Jan 28 13:06:21 EST 2011"…
          Is this the one where the carp sync problems are addressed?

          If so, it will take me a number of hours to get this applied and verified. 1-4 hours of active monitoring before the bug usually appears, however, I will not be able to start testing all too soon. Expecting about 2 to 8 hours before I can start monitoring.

          If anyone could start testing sooner, that would be great!

          (for those that don't know, I run two DL-type HP servers with quad Intel gbit NICs in them)

          And again, great work pf team! Really appreciated!

            If the carp patches were also pushed to the AMD version 2.0-BETA5 (amd64)
            built on Fri Jan 28 13:06:21 EST 2011 then it's not fixed for me.  As soon as I make any change and it syncs the backup firewall locks or panics.  It's not a hard lock though, it does bring me to a prompt but not seeing any of crash files in the /var/crash.

              It's the amd64 version I am running too.
              Not too good news there, Andy. Sorry to hear.
              And usually, with the carp errors, there seems to be a freeze, rather than a crash, which will render no trace dumps.
              Sometimes, very unusual though, I get a debug prompt at which I can get a backtrace. Mostly the box just hangs.

              I guess the devs would appreciate any input they can get hold of, so if you do get to a prompt and can type something in, give "bt" (as in backtrace) a go and see if you could provide any more info.

              Cheerio.

                I just tried on my amd64 vm and when I force a manual panic (sysctl debug.kdb.panic=1) I get a textdump, and no db> prompt. I'm not sure why someone on a current snapshot update would still be getting left at a db> prompt when it crashes, they should be gathering the info and rebooting on their own.

                Doesn't help with the hangs, though, but the hangs are a different problem (and a different thread :-)

                  Here is what I get when carp tries to sync.  This is running snapshot version amd64-20110128-0938.

                  Thanks,

                  Andy

                    That snap was before the last fixes went in. Try the newest one.

                      That's the latest I see on the snapshots server.  Am I looking in the wrong spot?  http://snapshots.pfsense.org/FreeBSD_RELENG_8_1/amd64/pfSense_HEAD/updates/?C=M;O=D

                        It's probably still building right now. Give it some time…

                            One more patch went in after that build, it's going right now and will be ready in a few hours.

                                  I have been since late last night and I've tried everything I was doing before to make it panic but have had no success.  Looks like the guys have done a good job of finding the problem.

                                        Please monitor the output of netstat -m and see if those counters go crazy otherwise thank you for help testing.

                                          Had another panic just now after 21 hrs uptime.  Attached is info, running build AMD64-20110129-1502.

                                          Thanks,

                                            You need to upgrade at one snapshot after it.
                                            This issue was reported before in this thread and it should be fixed on snapshot later than what you have installed
