Identifying who or what rebooted a linux server SLES 11


I was hoping someone could help me with this question. I'm fairly new to Linux and have more experience with Windows systems. My question pertains SUSE SLES 11. I have server that was rebooted and we are trying to determine if someone rebooted it or if it was rebooted by a system process. The "last reboot" command shows me the time it was rebooted but not sure what caused the reboot.

reboot system boot 2.6.32.59-0.19-d Wed Nov 25 09:22 (7+01:22)

It doesn't appear have been rebooted by a logged in user, because I don't anything in the systems History where the reboot, shutdown or halt command was entered. I don't see anything /var/log/messages or /var/log/warn that would indicate the system rebooted. I'm just looking to identify the reason why this system rebooted at this time.

Thanks in advance for any help any can provide.

Power fail and recover shows as 'reboot system boot' in last.
