Hello
On XP900 and DS10 alphas, you have a very good smart power controller
called RMC that allows you to remotely check via serial port the
temperature of your machine and power it on/off.
You might find something useful for your problem.
See
http://www.freebsd.org/relnotes/CURRENT/hardware/alpha/support-proc.html#AEN655
I am not sure that RMC exist on xp1000 but the xp1000 configuration
sheet mention it see

Hello,
I tried to search over the archives, but found no info. So:
I have XP1000:
cpu model : EV6
cpu variation : 7
system type : Tsunami
system variation : Monet
cycle frequency [Hz] : 500000000
platform string : COMPAQ Professional Workstation XP1000
cpus detected : 1
with 1GB RAM and 4GB SCSI disk. I run kernel 2.4.32 + grsec patches.
Today, at 04:33 it suddenly switched off after about 20days uptime but
1) there is no sign of problems in messages/logs
2) there was no problem with electricity (it's on UPS in the server room
where the other machines work ok. yes, it has auto_boot option)
Do you have any hint/info about how to get more info about my Alpha
status? Are there any SMARTd/sensors or similar functions for Alphas?
Dmesg is at: http://t1.cz/dmesg.txt
So I politely asked the ISP staff to press the power button and now the
Alpha runs as if nothing happen.
p.s. as for grsecurity - I was running 2.4.x kernel on older Alpha
(http://www.t1.cz/alpha/old/) for more than a year without any problems.
So I don't blame GRsecurity for the halt.
