Nope. We have a Compaq Proliant 3000 with 5 C/CON 16 porst Digi Boards. We ran a compaq system health monitor and it shows that one of our Cons was bad. So I moved it to the bottom of the rack and shuffled all the users up. Also, it looks like the memory, the NIC and the digi board drivers all share this same IRQ for some reason. We also, found that Compaq recommends having the memory arranged in a certain order. So we re-seated the mem in the recommended spots. And thus far we haven't had a problem. Its been a little over a week now and no lock ups.
You may want to try re-seating your memory, adn re-installing the driver software for the CONS and see what that does.

biosdecode
BIOSDECODE(8) System Manager's Manual BIOSDECODE(8)
NAME
biosdecode - BIOS information decoder
SYNOPSIS
biosdecode [OPTIONS]
DESCRIPTION
biosdecode parses the BIOS memory and prints information about all structures (or entry points) it knows of. Currently known entry point
types are:
o SMBIOS (System Management BIOS)
Use dmidecode for a more detailed output.
o DMI (Desktop Management Interface, a legacy version of SMBIOS)
Use dmidecode for a more detailed output.
o SYSID
o PNP (Plug and Play)
o ACPI (Advanced Configuration and Power Interface)
o BIOS32 (BIOS32 Service Directory)
o PIR (PCI IRQ Routing)
o 32OS (BIOS32 Extension, Compaq-specific)
See ownership for a Compaq ownership tag retrieval tool.
o SNY (Sony-specific, not decoded)
o VPD (Vital Product Data, IBM-specific)
Use vpddecode for a more detailed output.
o FJKEYINF (Application Panel, Fujitsu-specific)
biosdecode started its life as a part of dmidecode but as more entry point types were added, it was moved to a different program.
OPTIONS
-d, --dev-mem FILE
Read memory from device FILE (default: /dev/mem)
-h, --help
Display usage information and exit
-V, --version
Display the version and exit
FILES
/dev/mem
BUGS
Most of the time, biosdecode prints too much information (you don't really care about addresses) or not enough (because it doesn't follow
pointers and has no lookup tables).
