Debian on HP ProLiant server hangs (disk i/o is my guess)
- by Martin
I installed Debian (2.6.32-5-amd64) on my HP ProLiant MicroServer (purchased recently.) I also added 3 2tb hd in zfs. I've experienced several server froze. Sometimes it showed Soft lockup CUP stuck for 61s! Today I experienced a different problem (I think) and the message looked like this

Is this a hardware problem? What tools/methods can I find out the source of the problem? I've used Debian for years but never had problem like this.
