server with rOS doesn't work

Hi,
I installed rOS 3.7 LEV.6 on a Fujitsu Server with this features:

P4 Dual Core
1Gb ECC
Vga integrated
FLASH IDE 512Mb
2x Gigabit Broadcom 10/100/100

  • no cd/dvd installed

and

  • usb disable from bios,
  • serial port disable

Package installed are only basic (Routing, Security, and something else)

My problem is this:
I installed it on, and it works… done all configuration and all works.
after some hours, 3… 4… it stop works. If i see the shell from local, I’ve just a black screen (without blinkin’ cursor or no writing)
Then, if I power off server and restart, It works again. But always for some hours… (max 6-8h of uptime)

What happen?
second question, if I try to change miniIDE flash card with another one, How I can Export and Import my license?

Thx 4all!

  1. It sounds like hardware problem. Are you sure that server is working correctly ?

  2. It is not possible to transfer license to another media. You need to purchase new license for second disk drive.

1)server is working correctly? I Suppose…

What means exactlly for you “working correctly”? I have this: all is configured and it’s working… I have 500 customers and it has the rule of a mix of PPPoE server and HOTSPOT server, with some rules of firewall…

All perfectly works for about 4 hours, anyway it’s sure that stop workin’ less than a day of uptime…

2)I’m really perplex of this.
So what means, If it’s stop working and depending from Hard Disk (or flash in my case) How can I know it??

I buy a flash and install it… i have 24 hours of trial, active it… and if my server stop after 24hours???

Sorry but I think it’s stupid… I paid money for nothing

i doubt its the hard drive (CF IDE). Its more likely to be an IRQ conflict, or Realtek NICs. Go into BIOS and disable serial ports, parallel ports, secondary IDE, USB, onboard audio, etc… see if it continues. also which version of RouterOS?

Sam

I already disabled all usb ports, serial port, parallel port…

late I add a screenshot of /system resource

currently it’s installed rOS 3.7 lev. 6

These are just some of the reasons to purchase a RB600, 1000 or test product ! :slight_smile:

IRQs most likely though..

here is my config:

SERVER STATUS UP (BUT WITHOUT ANY CONNECTIONS, ONLY LAY TURN ON)

So you can see I’ve disabled USB and Serial from BIOS…
Is there something strange?

THX

up 4 help…

ilpastore,

Is your web proxy on? and try without multi CPU option. Hope it will solve your problem.

Thanks

I also thought that’s a PCI Xpress problem, but I can’t disable it.

web proxy?? I shoulda able necessarly?? i don’t use web proxy in this server…

Only 1 CPU? ok I’ll try to disable…

anyway I have server turn on from yesterday at the same time (more or less). It shoulda have about 24hours of uptime, but without any connection or useful.

I can say more tonite…

…ok I checked: I have 24H and 20Min of uptime and all right…

than, i do a system reboot to check again bios configuration. I notice that I have again 2 CPU and simply reboot all (without change anything)

Now my Server is again in test, always without any connection or others… just trying a better uptime.

So, my suspicious is the NICs. They are 2X 10/100/1000 BROADCOM netXreme BCM5715 (see in the pic)

:confused:

do you disabled 2 CPU from bios or from ROS ??

not again.

I’m already in testing…
