Hi everybody,
Twice now my machine has frozen/crashed/become unavailable in similar circumstances.
Both times it has happened shortly after 5am on a Sunday (not consecutive sundays though). After a remote reboot (via a power management interface) I've looked around in my /var/logs and don't see anything obvious as to why it went down, but I'm able to pinpoint the time to sometime after 5:03am.
Trying to find the culprit, I've found this in Direct Admin's crontab, and I'm guessing it may be related:
5 5 * * 0 root /sbin/quotaoff -a; /sbin/quotacheck -augm; /sbin/quotaon -a;
That looks like it's possibly the problem as it runs at 5:05am on Sundays.
Can anybody suggest how I can test if this is the problem? Does it log errors somewhere?? Can I try running it myself as root? (btw, I'm running FC2 if it helps)
Thanks!
Cameron
