My gateway/firewall machine died yesterday - no response to network. On the
console was a stream of "unable to allocate scsipi_xfer" messages. It would
let me log in but not much else. What could cause the call to pool_get()
(scsipi_base.c:466) to fail? What can I use to debug/watch for this when it
happens again?
Machine is a sparc 5 clone, 1.6ZG, bridge + ipf on 3 interfaces, and just
ipf on a 4th.
Thanks,
J
