why was the ubuntu server rebooted
one of our virtual servers has been rebooted. the hosting company say they did not do any reboot.
the "last" command show:
reboot system boot 2.6.36.4 Thu May 12 04:23 - 23:16 (5+18:53)
reboot system boot 2.6.36.4 Thu May 12 03:34 - 04:05 (00:31)
reboot system boot 2.6.36.4 Thu May 12 03:15 - 03:23 (00:07)
can i find why it has been rebooted?
thanks.
Solution 1:
Check /var/log/auth.log to see what was happening at the time of the incident. Also try checking /var/log/messages or /var/log/syslog, as these may show that the server's reboot button was pressed.
