I have recently taken over a server in an office running Red Hat 8 with 
JFS on Raid 5 in degraded mode.

I do not want to stick another hard drive in until I do a full back up. 
This is especially required because the software raid has been set up 
incorrectly, using multiple drives on the same ribbon.  The Howto says 
this is a big no no as one failing drive on a ribbon will pull the other
down.

The server dies every couple of weeks and no one knows why.  It seems 
that it may be brought down by programs failing to close.  It died 
yesterday, even after being quite responsive with a load of 400+

Processes that fail to die have included du, java, imapd

I was hoping that someone might have seen this before and know why it is
happening.

This might provide a clue :-)
