we also  have had lockup issues with x366, though in our initial case we
were using Update 3. Redhat actually worked on a patch that seemed to
work, not sure what the status of that patch is.

We've seen those type hangs with Broadcom NICs and Adaptec controllers.
An IBM supplied driver may resolve the problem.

	Has anybody experienced system lockups and/or system hangs. 

	We recently loaded an IBM X366 4processor box with RedHat 3.0
update 5  x86_64  64bit.  We now see occasionally over night or
throughout the day system hangs. To the point where the interfaces may
be pingable but ssh or telnet are not allowed. Connectivity through a
RSA-II card is allowed but the remote control capability is useless. At
this point only a system reset clears up the system so it can be
accessed once again.

	Diagnosis from the RSA has been run and comes back clean.  No
error logs explaining loss of power or temp warnings. No loss of network
connectivity or cpu/memory failures.  The system simply locks up.

	Any help would be greatly appreciated.
