Description Scott Weigand 2011-07-22 11:23:35 UTC
Description of problem:

While using Fedora 15 x86_64 on a Dell PowerEdge T110II, I believe if the system is under a prolonged heavy load, Fedora loses/drops all USB. By "loses/drops," I mean ports aren't seen, keyboard no-responses, optical mouse is dead. System is still alive, I can SSH in, but USB is out until I reboot.

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):

N/A

How reproducible:

USB Keyboard, Mouse, and jumpdrive while sync jumpdrive to Dropbox?

Steps to Reproduce:
1.
2.
3.
  
Actual results:

Loses/Drops USB

Expected results:

Shouldn't lose/drop USB

Additional info:

Can pull any logs/debug info, but am at a total lose as to where to look.

Messages were generated while transferring a large amount of data from a 32gig SanDisk jumpdrive to the server.

There's no indication as to which kernel version was having this issue.  Are you still seeing it with the 2.6.43/3.3 kernel update?

Comment 3 Scott Weigand 2012-06-06 17:08:48 UTC
I have since upgraded to Fedora 17 and ditched the crude temporary usb backup method. 

If I see the problem re-emerge, I'll request this ticket be re-opened.

Thank you for the support/effort/everything you put into your Red Hat and Fedora products! Red Hat Enterprise Linux 5 & 6 and Fedora 17 user.

Thanks,

Scott
