Hi, I have odd situation with one of our servers: it suddenly shut down to system halt. This is what makes think of that it was a shutdown: Oct 30 18:21:23 xxxxx kernel: Stopping inetd. Oct 30 18:21:23 xxxxx kernel: Shutting down daemon processes: Oct 30 18:21:23 xxxxx ntpd[687]: kernel time sync enabled 6001 Oct 30 18:21:27 xxxxx kernel: . Oct 30 18:21:33 xxxxx last message repeated 6 times Oct 30 18:21:34 xxxxx kernel: daemon process stopped And in fact, the machine was powered off, when I saw it at the datacenter. I powered it on and it came up with no filesystem checks. It was cleanly shut down. We have accounting turned on, but lastcomm does not display any commands like shutdown, halt or init. I suspected that someone could have pressed the power button but I don't see any acpi events in the logs. There is a apcupsd running on that system, but there are no apcupsd.events logged and the battery is fully charged. Can someone give me a hint, where else I could look at to find the culprit? What could be the cause to cleanly shutdown a system off without anything logged by process accounting? Thanks, Mic
