Last few days I have many unexpected reboots of my Ubuntu 18.04.

Visual effects:

– work as usual (docker, intelliJ, firefox) – unexpected halt – fans goes crazy – push restart button – PC start normally

LOGS

Based on answers and comments from:

Unexpected Rebooting of Ubuntu 18.04 Possible cause of unexpected shutdown? https://unix.stackexchange.com/questions/9819/how-to-find-out-from-the-logs-what-caused-system-shutdown

I did small investigation. In syslog I observe that (yesterday):

Suspicion

First was too high temperature. Summer, could happen. But I work in room where I have no more than 20°C and sensors never show more than 45°C (on both CPU and GPU).

Second is CMD (command -v debian-sa1 > /dev/null && debian-sa1 1 1) and that all restarts happen at HH:55.

Then I found Machine stops suddenly, Only hard reset can help

but I have 48GB of RAM and that was very old Ubuntu so it should not be a reason.

Questions

It is simple – Why my PC reboot? Is there any other checks/wokr that I could do to find the reason?

ps. uname -a:

Linux koziolek-desktop 4.15.0-147-generic #151-Ubuntu SMP Fri Jun 18 19:21:19 UTC 2021 x86_64 x86_64 x86_64 GNU/Linux

    Are you intentionally running debian-sa1 with cron? Looks like you have one or more instances of a cron task to run it on an hourly basis. I’d start by disabling those tasks unless you have a particular reason to run them – PonJar Jul 09 '21 at 11:23

    Sudden poweroff is a motherboard feature, not an Ubuntu feature. Nothing useful logged also points toward a hardware fault. Might be thermal, might be a dying power supply. – user535733 Jul 09 '21 at 11:40
  • Seeing a similar issue in ubuntu 22.04 on asus rog m16. Same last journal message, "Checking for changes in DND status for the following members". I thought it might be thermal related, but I have my PC on a FAN stand to keep it cool, and still see periodic restarts. – monkut May 12 '23 at 02:08
