Re: crash left no trace
At the risk of stating the obvious, make sure that you are looking at '/var/adm/OLDsyslog.log' when you look at your "syslog".
Have a look at '/var/tombstones/ts99' for the more recent hardware picture.

Re: crash left no trace
nothing in /var/tombstones/ts99 ? (chassis codes indicating a hardware fault)
Ive seen this happen lots of times (no trace) and it was in my experience (in order);
1. someone disloged the power cable (ie. bumped it - causing a power reset but not enough to knock it out or else it would have stayed down)
2. the power supply was disrupted by say a UPS power level switchover (power level dropped a little or exceeded specification, again causing a reset). This was mostly in the old days before power smoothers which ensured power levels remained constant in the event of a ups battery/generator failover.
3. the power unit on your K is faulty (rare in my experience - but it does happen. If this is true just wait - it will happen again and then you will know)
Do you know for sure there were no power problems (or work being done - no matter how many assurances you have that it shouldnt have caused a problem!), or that nobody was near your machine at the time ? last time this happened to us someone had simply opened the cabinet to get a cable, and bumped the main power cable!

Re: crash left no trace
Yep - I am looking at the correct syslog file. I know it only rebooted once, since the OLDsyslog file has entries up to the reboot. I don't have tombstones...
Thanks

Re: crash left no trace
I would call the response center and log a hardware call, assuming you have a hardware support contract, and have them check the power supply on the box. I may indeed be going bad. And if it does just click off at some point, you won't see any indications anywhere.
If the power supply in the box itself is bad, it won't matter that you're on a UPS since you are on the downstream side of it.
