Ok I'm reviving this thread as I have now had my third site with this issue.

Symptom:
Astlinux completely locks up and requires a power reset. The log shows NOTHING 
in all cases.

Troubleshooting conducted:
Site 1 - The problem has not occurred since both a UPS AND Power Filter have 
been added
Site 2 - A power filter has been added and the problem has reoccurred. I have 
completely changed the system from an APU2 to Qotom and it did the same thing 
again
Site 3 - A known working APU2 was installed and it locked up yesterday.

I have checked mSATA cards and they were different across systems at these 
sites.
All systems are running 1.3.7.1 but I am running this at many other sites on 
the same hardware with no issues.

Power quality testing is extremely expensive and surely I cant be having a 
power issue at 3 sites!
The whole thing just doesn't make any sense and I don't know where to go from 
here.
Any ideas?

Regards
Michael Knill

    Looks like this problem was bad power. I was told by the local IT Guy that 
there are regular brownouts so I installed a UPS. No more problems since doing 
so.
    Seems like APU's don't like low voltage scenarios.

    Thanks for your help.

        Yes could be but very unusual. I have never had this problem with any 
other APU.
        Maybe I will look for a good surge suppressor.

            Interesting, maybe bad power (spikes, noise, etc.)

            Test with a UPS attached or good surge suppresser.
