Hi,
sounds like your box is really physically out of memory (physical and virtual) when this problem occurs. That would explain your login issues too - you would need to start a new process and there is just no memory on the box to do this. How much memory does your system have and how much is really unused - and do you have lru_file_repage switched on or off?
IBM says: Configurations containing a Host Ethernet Adapter (HEA) require more memory than the 512 MB minimum. Each logical HEA port that is configured requires an additional 102 MB of memory. The minimum memory requirement for configurations with one or more HEA ports configured, where n is the number of HEA ports, is 512MB + n*102MB.
