November 5, 2025Nov 5 Community Expert HiFor several months now, the server has been freezing randomly. Sometimes after several weeks, sometimes after just a few days.I've attached the diagnostics for the last freeze.I hope someone can help me.Hardware: HP ProLiant Gen816GB of RAMIs it time to consider a hardware upgrade? Unfortunately, I can't add more RAM to this server.Thanks tower-diagnostics-20251105-1819.zip tower-diagnostics-20251105-1805.zip
