Thermal issue could be caused by a fan going bad also. I've had that happen on a couple of HP servers in the past... If you have a product # to go along with the serial #, and are not sure if it's still under warranty, you could check it at this site: http://h20000.www2.hp.com/bizsupport/TechSupport/WarrantyLookup.jsp;jses sionid=v4R1LhrLQvkvY6mBS00jh1MlP5r1vrRKTx3fDQXhnr8mnTb2TQts!-808036264?c ountry=US&prodSeriesId=345273&prodTypeId=329290&locale=en_US Sorry for wrappage, but it is buried pretty deep in the HP website...

From: Andy Shook [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Thursday, June 19, 2008 5:51 AM To: NT System Admin Issues Subject: HP server with random reboots List, Got an HP server that randomly dies (no graceful shutdown) and reboots. Here's what I've done to date: 1. Verified power and directed client to purchase a second UPS so each power supply is on a separate UPS. (I really thought it was electrical) 2. Event logs only give me "The most recent shutdown was unexpected" 3. ILO "looks" happy but I'll freely admit, I'm a Dell guy With no .dmp file or other clues, I really believe its hardware related and are there any HP specific utils that can help me in my cause?
