This is a bit vague description of the problem. Have you done anything
to diagnose why the lamd would not respond anymore ? For example, have
you tried attaching to the "hung" lamd with gdb or using 'strace -p'
to know what the process is actually doing ?

No. Especially with kernels from an enterprise class Linux
distribution which should not change too much between updates.
