This one is for any ex-Tier 3/4 Lucent/Avaya engineers.
Have a large (3-cabinet) Magix/Legend system running Magix R4,V7 - with an R4 Merlin Messaging.
Merlin Messaging does spordic "warm" resets during the workweek - interestingly NOT on weekends. Can happen several times a day - skip several days - happen next day once - then several times again. No particular pattern.
Processor error logs are "clean". Merlin Messaging error log - shows a "Watchdog Timeout" error - followed in a few seconds by a "Forced Reset" error - every time the system does a reboot.
Have replaces the messaging twice - same issue. Have put the messaging in a different carrier and slot - same issue.
Cisco routers use the "Watchdog" timer to prevent endless loops in some of their CPU functions - and the timeout does cause a router reset - but what this has to do with Merlin Messaging - I have no idea.
Has anyone ever run into this?? And - what can I try next??
