IBM actually conducted some tests on my machine today and we are sending them a backup tape of the root volume so they can put it in their lab and test it. At this point they believe it is caused by an efix they had us apply. They claim to be running Apache 1.2.0 on AIX 4.2.1 in their lab with no problems. We took delivery of this machine in June and have encountered one problem after another simply running Oracle and Apache. Until now Apache has been rock solid and even now I don't really believe the fault is in the Apache code. IBM is less certain simply because it is only Apache that seems to be dying.
