Hi
Roach#4 back ON. Probably the power cable. Cooling still fine inside container.

A power issue seems most likely. What with the heat cycling, its possible that its power cable has loosened (or maybe even the ethernet). A failing power supply is also possible. Could you, or someone like you, double check that ROACH #4 is getting power and shows an ethernet light?

These problems seem to have started on December 19. The roach2s log a "syslog restart" line when they boot. I've extracted the December restart messages from the log files: pf1:2014 Dec 19 08:46:09 syslogd 1.5.0#6: restart. pf2:2014 Dec 19 08:46:15 syslogd 1.5.0#6: restart. pf3:2014 Dec 19 08:46:17 syslogd 1.5.0#6: restart. pf5:2014 Dec 19 08:46:15 syslogd 1.5.0#6: restart. pf6:2014 Dec 19 08:46:16 syslogd 1.5.0#6: restart. pf7:2014 Dec 19 08:46:16 syslogd 1.5.0#6: restart. pf8:2014 Dec 19 08:46:15 syslogd 1.5.0#6: restart. pf4:2014 Dec 19 09:45:58 syslogd 1.5.0#6: restart. pf4:2014 Dec 19 10:28:00 syslogd 1.5.0#6: restart. pf4:2014 Dec 19 11:36:52 syslogd 1.5.0#6: restart. pf4:2014 Dec 19 15:10:14 syslogd 1.5.0#6: restart. pf4:2014 Dec 19 16:28:23 syslogd 1.5.0#6: restart. pf4:2014 Dec 20 23:17:49 syslogd 1.5.0#6: restart. pf4:2014 Dec 23 23:55:54 syslogd 1.5.0#6: restart. pf4:2014 Dec 26 20:33:59 syslogd 1.5.0#6: restart. pf4:2014 Dec 28 02:26:52 syslogd 1.5.0#6: restart. pf1:2014 Dec 30 18:26:41 syslogd 1.5.0#6: restart. pf2:2014 Dec 30 18:26:36 syslogd 1.5.0#6: restart. pf3:2014 Dec 30 18:26:37 syslogd 1.5.0#6: restart. pf5:2014 Dec 30 18:26:37 syslogd 1.5.0#6: restart. pf6:2014 Dec 30 18:26:36 syslogd 1.5.0#6: restart. pf7:2014 Dec 30 18:26:37 syslogd 1.5.0#6: restart. pf8:2014 Dec 30 18:26:36 syslogd 1.5.0#6: restart. As you can see, pf4 did not restart on Dec 19 with the rest of the roach2s at 08:46. It restarted almost an hour later at 9:45. It then restarted several times throughout the day on the 19th. It also restarted sporadically a few days since then with the most recent being on Dec 28 at 02:26. The last log message for pf4 was Dec 28 03:06. It went down sometime in the next 20 minutes after that. I'm guessing it's a flaky power issue. Hopefully just power cord that got loose at one end or the other during the shutdown. If it's not that then I'd guess it's something internal to the power supply? I've CC'd Matt in case he has any other ideas. It would probably be a good idea to have someone check on the power cables.
