Cluster node reboots unexpected

[Morten]

Hi all,

I had a cluster node that rebooted today and I can't find out why.
Everything seemed normal while suddenly a container went offline. Right away I looked at the PVE log that said "Stop all VMs and Containers" on the node and the whole node just went "bye-bye" without leaving any clues as to wether it would reboot or shutdown.
How can I find out what triggered this reboot?
I found this

venus pvesh: <root@pam> starting task UPID:venus:00022C8D:034EB809:4FD7407D:stopall::root@pam:

in the /var/log/messages and was hoping to find out what started this task.

And in the /var/log/syslog i found

Jun 12 15:13:30 venus init: Switching to runlevel: 6

Any advice greatly appreciated.

This looks like an normal shutdown (initiated by human administrator).

Is it possible to see from what IP that reboot was initiated if it was done from one of the cluster nodes (not necessarily the one that rebooted)? I'm thinking it was one of my colleagues that clicked the wrong [Restart] button thinking it would just reboot one of the VMs, and now he doesn't have the balls to come forward. That kind of mistake usually calls for cake!

You can try to search the logs:

# grep api2 /var/log/apache2/access.log*
