Struck Posted March 28, 2018 Share Posted March 28, 2018 Hello. My server has experienced a random hard reboot, that resulted in a parity check Can you see anything from my logs?. It seems to have happend around 9am. This is the first random reboot it has made. I am running 6.5.0, and the system was online for at least two weeks before the reboot.

trurl Posted March 28, 2018 Share Posted March 28, 2018 Diagnostics only has information since the last boot. Fix Common Problem plugin in Troubleshooting mode will periodically save diagnostics to the flash drive so you can get earlier diagnostics if it happens again. Usually these things are caused by power going out. Is your BIOS set to automatically start on power restore? Do you have an UPS? Link to comment
Struck Posted March 28, 2018 Author Share Posted March 28, 2018 The power has not been out i know that much. So either must be a hardware or software issue. I don't have an UPS, since i live in a country with very good reliable power distribution. The bios is set to NOT automatically start when AC power returns. I have now set it into troubleshooting mode, but i don't expect it to happen again. Link to comment

So it isn't easy to prove that there hasn't been a power glitch. Old computers with AT-type PSU could continue to run even when the power glitch was long enough that you could see the lamps blink - while every ATX-powered machine instantly rebooted.

That is absolutely correct. I will have to see what happens. And maybe consider buying a UPS with line interaction. Link to comment
