kernel-smp-2.6.9-34.0.2.EL

[pierre_stephane.baton at alcatelaleniaspace.com]

I agree you about number of issues on this kernel : too much 8-D

For mvfs and vnode, those are used by IBM - Rational Clearcase, I'll look 
by there if they have more info as we have support.

Thank you for your help!

If people with other software have kernel panics there is no way of 
knowing if it is related to the same issue. Unless you are convinced 
2.6.9-34.0.2.EL only has 1 issue and that issue bit you ? :)

Ok, this kernel is tainted. It has a non GPL-licensed module loaded and 
one of the modules has been force-loaded (which is an indication it may 
not have been build for your kernel).

Both mvfs and vnode modules are not part of the kernel and the kernel 
panic is obviously related to mvfs. I hope you have a 3rd party vendor to 
complain to.

Loading kernel modules that are not build against the kernel you are 
running is a high risk of messing up your system. You may have been lucky 
that you did not loose any data.

Kind regards,
