Hello,

I have some Alpha 1200 which tend to hang during rebooting.
All Systemlogs tell me that the server did a correct shutdown.
But it wont come back up again. (personal has to manualy reboot the
system)
In an other case we even send the binaryerr.log to CPQ but they didnt see
any errors.

So I took a look at the binaryerr.log myself (dia -R -o full | more)
As I see it there is no system config output for the reboot which hung:

1 CTR processing err msg (10:30h now)
2. ascii msg startup (7:57)
3. system configuration (7:57)
4. ascii msg shutdown (2:30 same day)
5. ascii msg init 6 (2:30)

Does anyone has an idea of what the problem could be? Or maybe in what
direction
to look? Ive included some system information at the end

TIA
Samier.
