That description reminds me of a problem I ran into a while back. One fan had quietly failed, and the temperature would slowly creep up inside the box until things started 'acting funny' and the box would lock up soon after. It'd run fine for 3-4 hours, then just keel over and die. The logs didn't show anything consistent just before the event. The failing fxo modules are also an interesting symptom. Perhaps your power supply is misbehaving? is the power supply in that machine of good quality? I've never experienced it, but a friend has had two motherboards become unstable within a couple of months of each other, after running fine for 3-4 years. When he examined the motherboards, both had capacitors around the CPU that had visibly 'ballooned' like a leaking alkaline battery would. A long shot, but another example of previously stable hardware ceasing to be so. Do you have another PC you can swap the drive and cards into, to try to rule out hardware instability? could you run lm_sensors? (along with one of the logging/alarm packages that support it). -- Paul _______________________________________________ -- Bandwidth and Colocation Provided by http://www.api-digital.com -- asterisk-users mailing list To UNSUBSCRIBE or update options visit: http://lists.digium.com/mailman/listinfo/asterisk-users
