RE: Server automatically Shuts down.
Last night the system again crashed. Are there any other ways to redude power load on the system.? Thanks, Naveen.

Clean the dust off of motherboard and the inside of the power supply, and all fans, and you should be back to normal operating temperature, and good to go with case closed. -Original Message- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Behalf Of samy lancher Sent: Wednesday, March 17, 2004 2:40 PM To: Chris Pressey Cc: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: Re: Server automatically Shuts down.

If it is power load then you'd probably be better off replacing your power supply with something a bit bigger than you currently have installed. Is the machine on a UPS? Also, just to check because I've seen this happen before: The power is not controlled by a switch that a new employee or maint staff is switching off? New cleaning crew unplugging to get access for their vacuum/radio, etc? Don't laugh, I've consulted on gigs where such things have happened. -Jeff ___ [EMAIL PROTECTED] mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED]

Hmm; probably this is irrelevant, but: about a couple of months ago, I had a low-trafficked server that would crash early each morning after sending out its reports. Turns out that the CPU was overheating while it was tarring up backups around 4-5 a.m. --- fan wasn't turning at all But, you've got the case open, so the fan is running, right?

Server automatically Shuts down.
Hello All, I have a strange problem with my FreeBSD 4.5 server. The server daily turns off automatically every night. I checked my power sockets and power cables and everything is good. i wonder why the server is shutting down daily at night times. I could not get much useful information through log files. I am having this problem from past 2 weeks and I did not make any changes to the server when it was working fine. Any suggestion would be appreciated. Thanks, Naveen. Do you Yahoo!? Yahoo!

You use the word, Shutdown, which implies an orderly close of all files systems, This would be very apparent in the logs. Is the system really crashing and not shutting down? Does it happen at the same time every night? Do you have any custom cron jobs which execute daily at night? Is the file system corrupt when you reboot system after the nightly event? Login as root and do not logout, see what is on root console screen in morning after the event. Does this box have anonymous FTP? -Original Message- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Behalf Of samy lancher Sent: Monday, March 15, 2004 12:44 PM To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: Server automatically Shuts down.
