You can't telnet into it. Modems which may be live to it can't talk to it
as well. Nothing short of cycling power fixes it.
I posted this identical problem back in November and I was advised that
"this is a classic symptom of memory starvation". Well this is simply not
the case. I only have 10 modems attached to the PM. It has the stock 4Mb.
Presently (after a power cycle) I see nine users on-line (probably the same
nine who got locked up and then disconnected with my power cycle).
A show mem reports:
4,194,304 bytes 941,180 used
System nbufs 1400 - 51 used 1349 available
96:1 2048:1 160:2 1152:0 128:1 640:0 144:2 80:1 176:1 16:37 48:1
I have this uncomfortable feeling that just a few moments ago the NBUFS
was up at 800 used, but after I ran a show sessions and then another show
mem it changed to only 51.
Tracking this is extremely critical. I am trying to operate a fledgling
ISP and lockup/disconnects is fairly bad for one's early reputation.
Can some kind soul advise if I can crank up system logging from the PM to
my authenticator? My syslog gets nothing from the PM right now other than
a boot message. I wouldn't mind running it to the maximum logging to try
and find what the problem is..
If ANYONE has clues or ideas how to trouble shoot this I would be most
appreciative. I would put in 16Mb if it would help.. But WILL it?
Please help. Anybody..
