Hi

We have a Compaq server running RedHat Linux 6.2 with kernel 2.2.17
Once in a while we get errors like:

Nov 13 09:18:33 www2 kernel: VM: do_try_to_free_pages failed for httpd...
Nov 13 09:18:43 www2 kernel: VM: do_try_to_free_pages failed for mysqld...

The server then hangs and I have to cycle power to get it up and running
again.
Does anyone here know if
  1. this is a known problem / bug?
  2. there is a patch available ?
  3. the problem is described anywhere else ?
