I've got a generic AMD PC server that keeps shutting down. One time when I went to restart it there was no power, so I replaced the power supply. It still shut down on its own. The processor cooling fan was making noises and stalling, so I replaced it as well. It still shuts down. Its a headless server. Its running a fully patched install of FC3. Its been running that since it came out with no problems. I haven't touched the machine installation/administration wise for a long time. This machine ran for years with no problems. I think its a 2002 vintage machine. Is there a way to check the processor temperature from the command line in FC3 ? Is there any other way to figure out from FC3 why it would be shutting down ? Does FC3 log an abnormal shutdown and give a reason somewhere ?
