Does the rx2600 take the same ram and the zx6000? If so you are welcome to have some of mine if you need to, I ve got 24GB of it and took most of it out to save power consumption! :)
Might do - I might actually up the RAM on it since I won't be paying the power bill in the colo :)

Sampsa, it might have been a fluke ( or a passing neutrino :)

I seriously don't have the time to track this down right now, a cold boot fixed it, just hoping it was a one-off.
Thanks for the advice though.

Could be - the EFI / POST did a memory check and everything seemed fine on the next two boots.
Worst comes to worst it'll be a holiday to the UK to replace the box :)

Something had gone horribly wrong with RHESUS, one of its front panel LEDs was flashing red.
A power cycle however restored normal functionality and the system is now running again, so the MEDIALIB and web services are up again.
