Title: Server shuts down every night
Post by: jtramone on Thursday 10 November 2011, 05:52:04 am
Hello

My Endian 2.4.1 server (VMware virtual machine) has been acting quite strangely: it shuts down every night at 9:55pm!

Log says "Job halt started for user root (pid 666)" (/var/log/messages):

Oct 28 21:01:02 proxy01 fcron[27042]: Job [ -x /bin/run-parts ] && run-parts --report /etc/cron.hourly completed

I have ran all cron scripts manually but wasn't able to reproduce the problem, and there is nothing scheduled to run at that time.

I've attached both crontab and messages files to this message.

As I have customized some programs in order to work well with my AD domain, I am resisting to install the server from scratch.

Help!

It seems a cron job, but if  you already searched it ...

It has the VMWare tools installed?
Did you check the host to see if something is sending some logout command?
Did you have a scheduled backup at this time?
