Oct 2 13:03:23 ds2 kernel: tg3: eth1: transmit timed out, resetting
Oct 2 13:03:23 ds2 kernel: tg3: tg3_stop_block timed out, ofs=2c00 enable_bit=2
Oct 2 13:03:24 ds2 kernel: tg3: tg3_stop_block timed out, ofs=1400 enable_bit=2

It`s happends Ramdonly. I cant trace the reason why? Please HELP

Please provide your kernel version, eth lspci info, and eth module version info.

Also, the first suggestion you are going to get is: Contact Red Hat Support. Rhel 4 is supported until 2017.

I have no idea how to contact Redhat Support.

I searched for 'kernel: tg3: eth1: transmit timed out, resetting' on google and came up with this: https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=308041

I searched for 'redhat support' and came up with this: http://www.redhat.com/en/services/support

Please try to search for obvious answers like this yourself, before asking on a forum. People shouldn't be expected to google search things for you.
