May be I've found a solution !
I've tried many tuning : disabling the ipmi modules, no success (the modules are disabled, but loaded).
I've tried stopping sfcbd daemons, non success.
A lot of parameters, no succes...
And finaly, I've deleted ipmi modules ( ipmi_devintf.o, ipmi_msghandler.o and ipmi_si_drv.o) : it seems to be a working solution. My server is up since 2 days now, I will wait a bit more, but it seems OK (before, it freezed after a few hours maximum).
To delete these modules, it is not possible to do that directly in the /mod directory, this directory is rebuild at startup.
Here is how to do :
- boot a live Linux (from a CD)
- mount /dev/sda5 and /dev/sda6 (these are the two "banks" of the firmware)
- extract the binmod.tgz archive, remove the 3 ipmi modules, rebuild this archive, and replace the original.
That's all. The ipmi modules will not be loaded now, and eServer will not crash or freeze.
It will be necessary to redo that after each firmware update.
