NFS kernel crash with RHEL 6.3

Latest response

Hi there,

I also opened a case on the issue but writing to here also...On HP DL580 G7 server we got a crash as below:

I think the problematic function is fbcon_redraw, but it is not related with NFS. How can I further debug the issue as I cannot send vmcore to the support for security reasons...

Thanks,

AO
