Random Restart Windows 2019 server

Hi Saiprakash05,

Event ID 1074 indicates that the system has been shut down by a process. The Reason Code: 06500ff is a generic error code that indicates that the system was restarted due to an unspecified error.

The fact that the server is rebooting itself twice or thrice a week without human intervention suggests that there is a problem with the server's configuration or hardware.

Here are a few things you can try to troubleshoot the issue:

1. Check the server's hardware. Make sure that all of the server's components are properly installed and functioning. You can use a hardware monitoring tool to check for any errors or problems.
2. Update the server's firmware and drivers. Make sure that all of the server's firmware and drivers are up to date. You can check for updates on the manufacturer's website.
3. Check the server's event logs. The server's event logs may contain additional information about the cause of the reboots. You can view the event logs in Event Viewer.
4. Run a virus scan. Even though you don't have antivirus software installed on the server, it's still a good idea to run a virus scan to rule out any malware infections. You can use a free online virus scanner to scan the server.
5. Disable any unnecessary services and startup programs. Disable any services and startup programs that you don't need. This can help to reduce the load on the server and improve its stability.
6. Contact your cloud provider. If you're still unable to resolve the issue, contact your cloud provider for assistance. They may be able to help you identify the cause of the reboots and troubleshoot the issue.

In addition to the above, you may also want to try the following:

• Check the server's power supply. Make sure that the server's power supply is providing enough power to the server. You can use a power supply tester to check the power supply's output.
• Check the server's temperature. Make sure that the server is not overheating. You can use a temperature monitoring tool to check the server's temperature.
• Try running the server in Safe Mode. If the server does not reboot in Safe Mode, then the problem is likely caused by a third-party application or driver. You can try disabling or uninstalling third-party applications and drivers to see if that resolves the issue.
