<4> in kernel log RHEL 4

Hi,

My colleague, working for hosting provider, told me about strange sequences of '<4>' appearing in kernel log in RHEL 4. Does it make some sense?

I'm afraid that is insufficient to say anything

So, it is not, hm, common behaviour?

What other kind of information are needed? I may ask my colleague for this. I am also curious about this.

contact redhat
BUT and this is a BIG ONE

redhat is ONLY supporting RHEL 4.9 IF AND ONLY IF you bought a EXTRA extended lifesupport contract
and ONLY for 4.9

basically rhel4 is unsupported
and if you did NOT buy the expensive extra extended support contract and did not upgrade to 4.9

you are also missing the last security fixes

so

one thing that would help
is exactly WHAT version of rhel4 is this ?
