Server goes down for 15 minutes every other day.

My server goes down for exactly 14 or 15 minutes approximately every other day. I checked messages and dmesg but nothing indicates any kind of error that seems related to this. This is on a file server I use for downloads and streaming. What could cause this problem?

What are the specs of the servers? Run memtest86 and let me know what you find, make sure to add ECC in the advanced options..

It reboots or just becomes inaccessible via SSH, for instance? Check its uptime with 'uptime' command.

I do have my similiar issue on this. Every day 12AM, the server went down. After few days investigation, i am noticed is CSF firewall crash. Do check your firewall as well.

Is this a VPS or a dedicated server ? If its a VPS probably your host doing some changes in the Node.

Also, is it going off at the same time everyday? Also, check logs to see if there is a certain file (or set of files) involved. Because, once one of our clients had this "bad" file in the server. And every time it is accessed, the server would just crash. And it will be automatically rebooted. It took a while for us to spot this thing.
