MAD
January 21, 2009 Posted by KP
I found I couldn’t access my server, at first I thought it was a network or power outage of my ISP. Opened a support ticket and a reboot brought it back, it turned out to be my server’s problem, checked the system logs, there is absolutely nothing between the reboot and my last login. It seems that the server simply stopped to accept any connections for whatever reasons.
So I asked my ISP what happened and was told “server was looking like being up just with no tcp connection to it”.
I’m so mad. There has been nearly 6 hours down time in less than one week, it’s longer than altogether that I experienced in the last 4 years.
When I just got the server (did absolutely nothing), I saw the load averages often reached over 0.6, it’s very strange to me.

Next time it happens get your host to run a top and report on output, also check things like “netstat -m” to make sure your mbufs are ok.
