Linux Machine Restart Unexpectedly


Hi,

I am new member on this forum and new linux administrative user.

We are running linux in our environment as virtual machine (Hyper-V) on which we running Oracle ERP.
Some time my this linux machine restarted unexpectedly without any reason.

I just try to google and found that I can got clue of this behavior by checking these logs
/var/log/syslogs

But unfortunate I am unable to get find these files which indicate why machine restarted unexpectedly.

Hi....

Welcome to the forum

I'm not sure if the segfault from the information you provided would be enough to cause the system to reboot suddenly and without warning. What is the brand and model (and model number)of this system and is it a desktop or a laptop?

This problem may be hardware in nature. Two things to check out would be the memory (by burning a copy of Memtest86+,) and the motherboard's capacitors. Inspecting these will require you to open the case of your desktop system. If your system is under warranty or you feel uncomfortable performing this inspection, take it to an authorized repair shop.

Start there and let us know what you find out.

Regards...
