[asterisk-users] Asterisk server crashes after two years

[Michael Welter]

My Asterisk colo server has been up for almost two years.  Today it 
crashed.  When I gave the reboot command, it crashed so hard that it had 
to be power cycled.  I wasn't in attendance, but I can speculate that it 
had a kernel panic during the shutdown.

Yesterday I added a PHP agi script, and it had been user over 1000 times 
before the crash.  I don't think the Linux/Asterisk crash is coincidental.

Can someone give me things to look for?  I'm watching memory, and it has 
750MB free (out of 1GB).  When I restart Asterisk, I see 19 
processes--is this normal?  What else should I be doing to narrow down 
on this problem.

Thanks for your help.
