rmp5s Posted March 22, 2019 Share Posted March 22, 2019 I just got home from work and noticed my server was down. I plugged the monitor and keyboard into it and all that was on the screen was a bunch of gibberish. I could hit enter and get blank lines and I could hit ctrl+C and get brought to a login prompt. I entered my creds and it just took me back to the gibberish. I did a hard reboot and everything seems fine but I'd like to know what caused the reboot/error. Diags attached if anyone could parse through that. I'd greatly appreciate it. Thank you! tower-diagnostics-20190321-1714.zip Quote Link to comment

Syslog is cleared after a reboot, so not much to see there, you can try the new syslog saving feature on v6.7 but looks like you server is spamming the log with these: Mar 21 17:13:42 Tower kernel: ACPI Error: SMBus/IPMI/GenericSerialBus write requires Buffer of length 66, found length 32 (20180531/exfield-393) Mar 21 17:13:42 Tower kernel: ACPI Error: Method parse/execution failed \_SB.PMI0._PMM, AE_AML_BUFFER_LIMIT (20180531/psparse-516) So it can fill up quickly, looks for a bios update, it might help with that.

Damn. Any idea what those ACPI Errors are? Quote Link to comment

rmp5s Posted March 22, 2019 Author Share Posted March 22, 2019 Just now, johnnie.black said: Usually a bios bug/issue. Ah. Ok. Well, hope it doesn't die again. On the bright side, I learned that my DNS settings are incorrect. It should have failed over to 8.8.8.8 when the server (which is running a pi-hole Docker) went down but it didn't. So. Gotta fix that. Quote Link to comment
