The dump shows that a gnode is being referenced (most often being closed), whose data field is "0". DEC claims no other site has such crashes. Can that be true? If you had such a problem, and some patch worked for you, I'd like to hear about it. Thanks in advance, Urszula Frydman IST-CCS UC Berkeley
