Parity checks randomly start - log suggest random reboots?

Featured Replies

Over the last several weeks, i noticed parity check randomly starts. A quick look at the logs seems like it had an ungraceful shutdown, i have it plugged into an APC UPS and we have not had any power outages so i'm not sure what's causing this.

Any help with this please?

Server rebooting on its own is almost always a hardware issue, or bad power. You can retest without the UPS to rule that out.

The syslog in the diagnostics is the RAM version that starts afresh every time the system is booted. You could enable the syslog server (probably with the option to Mirror to Flash set) to get a syslog that survives a reboot so we can see what leads up to the problem. The mirror to flash option is the easiest to set up (and if used the file is then automatically included in any diagnostics), but if you are worried about excessive wear on the flash drive you can put your server's address into the remote server field and log to a share instead.

That might help us determine if there is anything pointing to a particular hardware issue although typically with hardware issues nothing gets logged.

Thanks, i already had the syslog server enabled and storing it in the appdata folder, with 3 local syslog files. When I checked though, i noticed there are no syslog files.

I thought that would be enough to store the files locally, i didn't realize i had to input the ip address of the server also (I was under the impression that setting was only to be filled in if i wanted to store the file on an external server).

I do believe it's the power supply though, it's a 650 watt and i think it was borderline with all the hardware i had running.
