System hangs during backup
Hello people
I'm using 'afio -o -Z -s 12000m /dev/st0' to backup my system. During this
backup, I stop any server application from running on the server (by that I
mean -- services that don't come with the standard Red Hat disto). This
backup starts after my system boots, so it has a pretty clean memory to
begin with.
Any suggestions to why my system occasionally hangs during backup? When it
doesn't hang, I sometimes get an 'Unable to handle paging request' on gzip.
Here is my system spec:
Dual Pentium III 500 Mhz
256MB RAM
1 Adaptec 2940U2W/Dual channel (AIC 7890) SCSI Controller
1 Adaptec 2940UW SCSI Controller
2 Fujitsu SCSI hard disks (each attached to a different controller)
3COM 3C905B Ethernet NIC
Python 04106 DDS-3(12/24 DAT) Tape Drive
Software:
RedHat 6.1 "Out of the box"
afio 2.4.2
The following applications are NOT running during backup:
Lotus domino R5 beta 2 (5.0.2)
Intersystems Cache 3.1.2
Pervasive.SQL 2000
MySQL 2.22.30
Thanks in advance
Isaac Aaron
