I have a weird issue here.
I notice about once a week the web server restarts itself. This would be only a minor issue if we were not planning on implementing an IP failover.
I have checked the event logs. I don't see anything that indicates a reason for the restart.
I need some help diagnosing the reason the server restarts. It happened last night at 5:00AM Last even in the log was 1 hour before the unexpected shutdown.
Here is the Log for the shutdown event. Any help is much appreciated. I know there isn't much to go on yet.

Just found this. Seems it could be hardware/firmware related.
I FOUND THIS! AHHHH!

I spoke to HP: They said to update the firmware and it will resolve the issue. I do not use ILO so I will be running it offline.
The file and readme are located here.
I was told if this does not fix the problem they will be sending me a new Mother Board. I really hope this fixes it!
But as of now this is the official solution from HP.
