The machine is locked up, means, no mouse, no keyboard, no ping - as far as I remember I tested a ping, but I can verify -, no nothing.
Hm, I always use a (hardware) serial console, but I think on default loglevel the sysrq-output goes to dmesg only, so you have to adjust the loglevel also. Normally I have a ssh into the box running with a tail -f /var/log/messages. This locks up very seldom. Have you tried some sysrq combinations? It might work, even when the keyboard looks locked up in all other respects.
Serial console with USB serial adapter? Thanks,
