Re: Domino 10.0.1 experiences: Server Restart Notification

If you haven't already, you should set log_agentmanager=1 so that you're
recording the start and stop times of each agent. This way you know exactly
which one had been running at the server panic. You may even need to add
some print statements in the agent to see how far it is getting in it's
code execution. If it's hanging at the same place when the crashes happen,
then something may need to be adjusted. It could be a memory leak with the
agent or amgr task. But agents can definitely cause servers to crash.

Thanks,
Chris
