CentOS - Feb 2012 - System reboots automatically more or less every two days

Good Evening,



I have a problem with CentOS 6.2. 

On December 2011 I installed CentOS 6.1 on a HP ProLiant DL 165 G7

server.

Recentely I upgraded to CentOS 6.2 but at reboot the system didn't

startup. So I removed new kernel kernel-2.6.32-220.4.2.el6 and CentOS

was again able to startup with original kernel-2.6.32-71.el6.x86_64. But

now every two days the system automatically reboots as you can see

below:



reboot   system boot  2.6.32-71.el6.x8 Wed Feb 22 22:53 - 17:10

(18:16)    

reboot   system boot  2.6.32-71.el6.x8 Wed Feb 22 20:04 - 17:10

(21:06)    

reboot   system boot  2.6.32-71.el6.x8 Fri Feb 17 22:55 - 17:10 (5

+18:14)   

reboot   system boot  2.6.32-71.el6.x8 Fri Feb 17 07:05 - 17:10 (6

+10:04)   

reboot   system boot  2.6.32-71.el6.x8 Wed Feb 15 15:02 - 17:10 (8

+02:08)   

reboot   system boot  2.6.32-71.el6.x8 Mon Feb 13 00:33 - 17:10 (10

+16:36)  

reboot   system boot  2.6.32-71.el6.x8 Sun Feb 12 16:08 - 17:10 (11

+01:02)  

reboot   system boot  2.6.32-71.el6.x8 Sun Feb 12 15:00 - 17:10 (11

+02:09)  

reboot   system boot  2.6.32-71.el6.x8 Thu Feb  9 18:06 - 17:10 (13

+23:03)  

reboot   system boot  2.6.32-71.el6.x8 Tue Feb  7 01:22 - 17:10 (16

+15:47)

  



In log file /var/log/messages there are no particular events happened

before system halt down.

Have you some idea of how I can resolve these problems? Do you think

they are correlated?

Thank you for the attention.

You say the system didn't come up - how far did it get? How did you remove
the newer kernel?

Personally, I'm moving as fast as I can to get *rid* of the 220.2 kernel,
with its constant, irregular crash dumps with traces that all start with
warn_slowpath.

Is the server on a UPS?

Looks to me as though its randomly rebooting several times a day. I'd
seriously wonder about hardware or power problems.

You want to setup a serial console, and log it.  Usually when the system 
reboots or crashes, it will print something to console indicating what 
is happening.  It can be a great help with hardware problems.

Is that when the janitor comes in and plugs his vacuum into the rack
power  outlet?
