Obviously a PERC5 problem.

Can you provide details on your platform (OS Vendor), revision, the
output of dmesg(1)?  That way we can tell you if its the driver version,
the PERC5 firmware, or something else...


Also check /var/log/message from before the previous reboot once that
happens, to see if anything made it into the log files and was committed
to disk before the crash.
