What do i look for in logs
Hi everyone
My proxmox server is crashing daily. And I've been checking the logs. But the thing is. What do I look for? Syslog, kern and daemonlogs. I would like to fix this problem. Need advice ! Thanks
When I look a the logs, I'm mostly looking for as least knots as possible, but also to make sure they are cedar, pine, or oak depending on the project.
Oh shit, this isn't the carpentry community. NVM then

Thanks, you are the reason I look at comments.

33 0 ReplyOn Linux systems running systems I usually use the journalctl tool to look at messages. Ex.
journalctl --list-boots journalctl --since="2012-10-30 18:17:16"
Looking for anything obvious.

Anything saying "error" or "fatal" in the kernel log.
It's quite likely that you will not find anything because the machine reboots before it can write to disk. In that case, I'd start with memtest86.
Protip: view the logs in vim, it highlights errors in red.

grep -Ri 'error/|warning' /var/log/
Then you can further pipe 'grep' or 'grep -v' based on what you see or for a specific time.

6 3 ReplyA good place to start because it's a likely culprit is anything mentioning "OOM" (which refers to Out Of Memory)
