My problem is that one of my Portmasters (PM-2ER-30) reboots every 3-15 days.
Could anyone please tell me why this happens?
The problem appeared after we have upgraded it to ComOS 3.5 release.
There were no such problems before. Actually the upgrade was not
successful for the first time - pminstall crached the flash file system
and we had a terrible night formatting flash file system, netbooting
ComOS 3.3.3 image and then upgrading to ComOS 3.5 again.
The next day after the impressive upgrade we noticed PM rebooting every
10-20 hours. Than we upgraded its memory from 1Mb to 4Mb inspite of
Livingston instructions declared 1Mb is enough for our configuration (no
ISDN, no OSPF and so on). We were lucky for some time when the problem
disappeared. Several days has passed and we noticed the PM still keeps
rebooting from time to time. So the problem is still unsloved.
Sincerely yours,
Ilia Zubkov,
REDLINE network director
P.S. Some helpful info:
