Why is server automatic rebooted?

Hi,

I'm operating a 7-node cluster with Ceph.

From time-to-time I must notice that a node is automatically rebooting.
Now I want to analyse what is triggering this reboot.

The output of last -x | head | tac indicates that the last reboot was triggered by kernel 5.3.10-1-pve:
root@ld5506:~# last -x | head | tac
root pts/3 tmux(31958).%2 Tue Dec 10 11:04 - crash (1+17:25)
reboot system boot 5.3.10-1-pve Thu Dec 12 04:29 still running
runlevel (to lvl 5) 5.3.10-1-pve Thu Dec 12 04:33 still running
root pts/0 10.177.32.32 Thu Dec 12 08:47 still logged in
root pts/1 tmux(248633).%0 Thu Dec 12 08:47 still logged in
root pts/2 tmux(248633).%1 Thu Dec 12 08:47 still logged in
root pts/3 tmux(248633).%2 Thu Dec 12 08:51 still logged in
root pts/4 tmux(248633).%3 Thu Dec 12 10:01 still logged in
root pts/5 tmux(248633).%4 Fri Dec 13 10:19 still logged in
root pts/6 tmux(248633).%5 Fri Dec 13 10:23 still logged in

If this is true, my question is:
Why is kernel triggering a reboot?

If not, the question is:
What should I check next in order to identify the root cause?

THX
 
Is it a normal reboot?
Anything in the journal, syslogs or kernel logs that can give a hint?
Do you have any HA resources defined?
Is it always the same node?
 
Hi,
I have this information in /var/log/messages:

You can see that the reboot was triggered at Dec 12 04:21:57.

I have activated a watchdog on server side (Lenovo) and my assumption is that renaming of interface usb0 is related to the reboot.
This is a USB/IP interface used by Lenovo's watchdog to verify if the OS is still available from IMM.

This is no HA setup.
And it's not always the same node going to reboot.

I noticed that most of the reboots on other nodes happens over the weekend.

May I ask why you want to use this watchdog? As you experience they can be quite tricky to get right.

I cannot help you with specific advice because I don't have access to similar hardware.
