CHECK_NRPE：错误 - 无法完成SSL握手并且无法通过SSH进入框或本地访问它

Question

Nagios reported the following error: CHECK_NRPE: Error - Could not complete SSL handshake

Up until this point, everything had been running fine on this linux server for... months at least.

I attempted to ssh into the server and could not. I was able to ping the box. I hooked up a monitor and keyboard to the server directly (there is usually nothing hooked up to this server - I usually always ssh into it). I got the login screen and entered in my username/password. ...and then nothing. I wasn't able to access the machine.

I hard rebooted the server and it came back up fine.

What should I be looking for to figure out what happened? ie, What happened? What log files on the machine can I access? In looking at some of my logs, it looks like my background processes/software was running during the time the machine wasn't responding to my attempts to access it.

I need to run this to ground to ensure this doesn't happen again.

It varies by linux flavor, but generally there are some log files that can point you in the right direction.

In /var/log there will be logs that can be helpful. Depending on the flavor you should see either syslog or messages . Look at any other recently written logs in there as well.

It's also quite likely the issue is hardware related. You should perform a memory test during reboot. The process will depend on your boot loader or bios.

You can install a crashdump utility.

You can run fsck .
