Hi Jason,
If there was not a clean shutdown, I would start looking for faulty
hardware, assuming the power was not interrupted. Any machine that
spontaniously reboots on its' own usually has a bad power supply, but it
could be very well be the motherboard, or even something else. Further,

No. It won't happen spontaneously without a reason. The reason is not always
intuitively obvious, but it won't happen without a reason.
I've had FreeBSD servers run for 14-

Hardware could still be an issue... It might be a CPU fan going out.
That would explain the reboots. CPU overheats and then reboots.
If it's been running fine for 4 months, yes, then it's burned in, but
the fan (or some other hardware) might have failed in the mean time.

One more thing check you cpu. You could have a bad fan on the cpu, rebooting
usually mean it's overheating. Are you ovoerclocking the CPU? You could
always as stated faulted hardware. You could put out everything that is not
needed to boot up. Then start replace each part until you find out what is
Don't rule out hardware just because it is new... I've had plenty
of new hardware fail on me within the first 24 hours of operation, and
the symptoms can be rebooting or shutting down completely.
What do the log files in /var/log/ say?

This is a wild guess, but it might be due to kernel panics related to write
caching (which is on by default since 4.6) Such a panic will happen when
ever heavy disc load occurs.
Try setting hw.ata.wc="0" in /boot/loader.conf and see if the problem goes
away.

Hi All,
Is it possible for FreeBSD to shut itself down and restart for no reason?
My machine was restarted last night and my hosting company claims they did
not touch the server or have any problems. This has been going of for a few
months now -- intermittent restarts that no one claims responsi
