I found these messages in the logs which seem like they *might* be a problem:Make sure that you are running the most up-to-date errata kernel from Red Hat as it usually has fixes for most problems that you may encounter. We had issues with kernels prior to about 2.4.16 and virtual memory that caused our boxes to hang but not reboot. Red Hat 7.1 comes with a VERY early 2.4 kernel (2.4.2-2 I believe) so that may be your problem.

While searching for answers, I saw that some people had reported similar behavior after they had done a reboot. We did reboot yesterday - and then it rebooted itself an hour later. I know that at least once when it rebooted itself it was under similar circumstances. We've decided to reboot again and then watch it to see if it happens again.
