I'm running RHEL3 with kernel version 2.4.21-15 on a remote server with hostcentric.net (our ISP who hosts our server). When I do an init 6 it does not get back up and I have to ask Hostcentric to restart the server for me.
I checked the logs and here's the significant portions of the log (/var/log/messages): May 18 03:21:11 d7211 kernel: Kernel logging (proc) stopped. May 18 03:21:11 d7211 kernel: Kernel log daemon terminating. May 18 03:21:12 d7211 syslog: klogd shutdown succeeded May 18 03:21:12 d7211 exiting on signal 15 May 18 04:18:35 d7211 syslogd 1.4.1: restart. May 18 04:18:35 d7211 syslog: syslogd startup succeeded I did the init 6 around 3:21 and Hostcentric came in at around 4:18 to physically restart it, and everything went smoothly from there. Based on this I guess that the problem is during shutdown and not during bootup. Can you suggest any specific problems that I should check for? Log files that I should check? The reason I ask is that Hostcentric treats each request to troubleshoot the servers as a mini-consulting engagement. Hence, I'd like to focus our request as much as possible.
