PowerMacG4 DP400 10.4.8 + security update 007 + ACARD 6890M SATA RAID configured for mirroring. Symptoms: every few days the machine hangs (it looks like the old "rainbow of death") remaining responsive to pings but otherwise inaccessible from both the console and ssh. Even telnet to an open tcp port (say 80) will establish the connection but the process on the other side will not respond any further (in this example a GET / HTTP/1.0 <cr> <cr> will not give anything). Right, because it's hung in an [disk] IO wait state that needs to complete before any further IO can occur. All of the above require IO so you're blocked while the wait ccompletes, I have two prime suspects: the ACARD (driver or card) and lookupd. This email sent to site_archiver@lists.apple.com
