Sean, Have you tried upgrading to higher patches of 7.5? Earlier patches had several problems both at server and client level. I'm not sure if this was one of them at server level, but you could eliminate causes by upgrading as the higher patch levels have fewer problems as a lot of earlier problems had been fixed [[and in some cases created new ones :-)]].

There doesnt appear to be any messages of any use in the arerror log and the general performance of the server at each time leading up to each of the restarts appears to be normal. I'm not sure if any filter logging or SQL tracing has been performed yet or whether this is a problem that requires patching. Now i'm not responsible for the application support but am just trying to help my app guys out, so am i right to think this will be a workflow issue that BMC will need to resolve (looping filter/s perhaps ???) ? They are currently troubleshooting the fault but as yet, we dont seem any closer to a resolution. Any thoughts please guys/gals.....anyone else expericing these issues or experienced them ?
