Re: [pfSense] Unexplained reboots

[Jon Gerdes]

If it has an iLO then that may provide some insights in its logs and
possibly a crash screen if there is one.  They quite often default to
"ASR" when they decide the OS watchdog has died

Configure syslog to ship all logs to a remote machine.  Make sure all
clocks are in sync

Does pfSense offer up a crash dump after the reboot?

Finally, patch it ie the BIOS etc.  I can't remember but I'm pretty
sure the G7s can do it from their built in F10 software

Update the BIOS and iLO to latest version release this will resolve the
issue

Hi,

I have a ProLiant DL385 G7 and get the same problem. I updated the 
firmware, and since this, it's all good.

Spontaneous reboots are often hardware-problems.

Hi Rainer,

Curiously, the ilo log is showing `server reset`  `server power removed`.

Wow.

I have changed power policy to `static lower power mode` instead of 
`dynamic power saving`


Let's see if that helps!

Thanks :-)

Hi Rainer,

That's not really a feasible hypothesis -- other boxes are plugged into the 
same power strips and they're all fine. This box has 2 PS plugged into 
different strips.

I think that the power supply went to sleep on low use.

We'll see tomorrow.

Thanks!

Hi Rainer,

Curiously, the ilo log is showing `server reset`  `server power removed`.

Wow.

I have changed power policy to `static lower power mode` instead of `dynamic 
power saving`

Let's see if that helps!
