E 250 Rebooting randomly
2007-12-25 11:45:00
Well, It's been a difficult solution.. I did a number of things.
1. Made sure that my PC acting as a terminal wasn't going into
powersave mode.
2. Made sure that powerd wasn't running, and that the /etc/power.conf
file was setup for NO AUTOSHUTDOWN... why a server would have
that as part of a default install to have it shutdown was beyond me.
3. Plugged unit into a UPS
4. Got a better UPS.
5. Installed all patches
ANd yet the machine still rebooted constantly.. After far too much complaining,
I finally had SunService come out, and they did a series of test, and resetted
everything.. Well.. The system is now actually still up! After 6 days.. So,
maybe
the problem is solved.
Thanks to all who gave me their suggestions!
