Novell FS server crashed
FS server was not responding when I got here this AM. Server utilization was stuck at 22%, no ABEND problems, sweep was loaded.
Sweep log stated the last files accessed were: a bunch from userdata:data/infosys/_staff/sachsg/program/labsetup….
The last file was userdata:data/stulife/housing/housing/floorp~1.pdf
The user was stulife_upld.noprive.g.emu
last access location: unknown
time of modification for the file (found after reboot) 8/12 2:22AM
Appears to have used FTP to transfer the file. I checked the file – not corrupted – and saved it elsewhere on userdata just fine.
Powered off server and rebooted – server came up fine. Reloaded novastor and sweep(with options).

FS crashed/hung again
FS crashed again:
23% CPU, no reponse on console, no abnormal disk requests, SWEEP was loaded as well as novastor.
powercycled box, didn’t load sweep, did load novastor

FS server reboot
FS needs to be rebooted to make sure all files for iFolder are unloaded. Sweep will then be reloaded as usual to see if the server still has problems.
Done, sweep is now loaded
FSAPPS server reboot
FSAPPS needs to be rebooted to correct a problem with Rsync.
Done!

Fileserver FS Unresponsive
Server became unresponsive, though showed no resource use problems (low processor util, low memory use, no dirty cache buffers or disk requests). Attempted to unload Sophos without success. Attempted to down the server without success, and finally restarted it. NovaNet was started; SWEEP was not.
FSAPPS restarted
File server FSAPPS was responding slowly to file requests. After unloading the backup software and antivirus software without result, the server was restarted.
Novell server (FS) failure
Technicians are working to figure out what the situation is.
FS Novell Server Hung – Rebooted
A call was received on the HelpDesk emergency line about 8:00pm reporting that a user could not login. Off-campus network tech was called and Jack came to data center. Off-campus tech determined that FS was in a state similiar to previous “hung” states. Walked Jack thru reboot of FS. FS returned to service about 20:45.
