ROS 3.2 on x86

RouterOS General
1

I wanted to make sure folks were running this without problems. I have some systems I was about to upgrade but I’m holding until I hear back. This was from another thread but mixed with lots of other stuff…

I’m using ROS on x86 PC.
Tried to upgrade 3.0 to 3.2 via combined package, the ROS stopped responding after reboot. The only thing in console is “Loading system”.
Tried reinstalling 3.2 from CD and it didn’t help. Reinstalling 3.1 help, it works again.
Does anyone have same problem?

Thanks,
Scott

I have several machines (PC, RB230) now running ROS 3.2 and have no problem.

I am running 3.2 on a dell poweredge860 without any issue.

There are two issues to be aware:

  1. you have to disable the multi-cpu, because it is still unstable at kernel level;
  2. you don’t have to use the L7 filter, it is still unstable causing the crash of the router.

I’m running Ver 3.2 with multi-cpu on and layer-7 protocol used and facing no problem, it’s working just fine.

Thanks

I have only 1 pc which don’t boot with 3.2 after upgrade (I didn’t tried other v3 version on this maschine). Also tried netinstall, but didn’t help. After the Uncompressing linux…booting the kernel message the pc frozen. This worked very well with 2.9.x series.
Others works fine.

I have problem with 3.2 version on x86. Mashine freese after couple hour. We downgrade to 3.0 and everything works.

We sent supoat file.

I have 3 units on 3.2 no issues (other than a known CALEA issue that has been noted and is in a “fix process”)..

8

I used one unit with v3.2, with multi-cpu enable, and it’s work normal

I’m using ROS on HP Proliant DL140.
Neigher upgrade from 3.1 to 3.2, nor clean install of 3.2 from CD works.

10

Is the DL140 a “G1” ?

11

We have about 30 systems running 3.2 already. No major issues expect the few that have multi-core issues with SMP. Turn off SMP for those and no issues as of yet.

There’s a reply from support, that they fixed drivers in release of 3.3.
And there’s more good news:
What’s new in 3.3:
*) fixed bug - PPPoE server could crash when running on multiple cores;

Will try to upgrade on monday…

But, did you install ROS 3.2 yourself or it was pre-installed?

All installed myself, or upgraded myself.
