“A restart was attempted automagicly”
Some times you’ll receive an email with a subject line like this:
cpsrvd failed @ Apr 08 13:01:21 2008. A restart was attempted automagicly.
cpsrvd is “cPanel Service Daemon,” which manages the cPanel services.
This service crashes really often. So often that cPanel handles the crashing by restarting and sending you the above email.
There is nothing big to worry about.
If it does happen frequenly you’ll have to go through the server logs, especially the messages log and look for problems. Also, watch top on the server and see if the server starts swapping heavily which could be the problem - i.e. not enough physical RAM for what you’re trying to get the server to do.
If you continue experiencing this problems please contact us.
