This is one of these cases now :) Recently (started something like a week or two ago) my system which was running months without any issues spontaneously rebooted. Nothing in the logs about the reboot. Then a few days ago it rebooted by itself a few more times, sometimes a 3-4 times a day without a clear reason in the logs of why this happened. I'm monitoring the CPU temp, load, network traffic and other metrics in the monitoring system, but there's nothing strange there - no load, no high temp, no high traffic or anything that could explain why this is happening. The machine is connected to a UPS, so I thought this could be causing this, but I've tested the UPS and battery and they are all fine. Here's what last(1) says about today's reboot: --- boot time Fri Jan 18 00:29 --- It's like the system has been rebooted normally, but that isn't the case. Sometimes it's logged as "crash". I've enabled crash dumps, but still nothing in /var/crash after the failure. The only error I'm able to find in /var/log/messages during boot-time is this: --- Jan 18 11:03:19 tsunami kernel: acpi0: <_ASUS_ Notebook> on motherboard Jan 18 11:03:19 tsunami kernel: ACPI Error: [RAMB] Namespace lookup failure, AE_NOT_FOUND (20110527/psargs-392) Jan 18 11:03:19 tsunami kernel: ACPI Exception: AE_NOT_FOUND, Could not execute arguments for [RAMW] (Region) (20110527/nsinit-380) --- Not sure if this is the root cause for this, cause I've seen this error before and at that time there were no reboots happening (months ago). Also I find it strange that it says Notebook above, as this is a desktop machine... And currently I'm out of ideas. Could you guys give any advice or hints what else I could check and sort this out?
