I have one linux machine (RHEL 5.0) and it is automatically rebooting after random amount of time.

Can you please suggest me what to do or how can I check what was the cause of server reboot. which log file do I need to check?? I checked boot.log and couldn't find anything meaningful for server restart.

Hi Rajesh,

I experienced the same behaviour after I installed HP System Insight Manager package on Linux. Deinstall solved the problem (can't remember which HPSIM version it was).

cheers

could be hardware related. try running this target="_blank">http://www.damnsmalllinux.org/

boot from the cd, and use the option to run it from the ram. If you run it for some time and, it reboots, this may indicate it is a hardware problem.

Well, you were correct. It was issue with RAM. Changed the memory module and now working fine.

Thanks!!
