You may have noticed, connection to the server has been intermittent over the last day or so. That's because it has been rebooting itself randomly.

System logs pointed to either a bad port (or MoBo), bad SATA cable, or bad SSD. We think we narrowed it down to a bad Mother Board. We swapped the SSD into a new server and it appears to be working again, but we are watching it closely.

I watching this behaviour for about one month, espacially before the New Year.

There had been some periodic slowness, but nothing like what happened earlier in the week. The logs showed the server rebooting itself several times per hour, and that only started on Wednesday. But the problem turned out to be a bad SSD connection, so maybe the slowness was a symptom of that.
