Re: Problem with 9406-170 shutting down

We have had this happen with two 170s in the last couple of years (we
have about 160 170s in the field).

Same thing - the system would shut down for no apprent reason. At first
it was just once or twice a week but it kept getting worse until it was
three or four times a day. We still don't know for sure what the problem
was but it went away after the backplane was replaced.

  One of my 9406-170 has been experiencing a problem lately with
  shutting
  itself down. I have checked the power schedule and its ok since we
  typically never shut it down.

  About two months ago we moved the machine to a different location and
  did a
  normal power down, no problems. It IPL's ok or seems to.

  One thing I have noticed is that it only occurs after someone
  connects to
  the machine using client access......when using Mocha or any other
  client we
  have no problems.

  Suggestions or insights on what may be causing this problem?
