Inherited server - need help
I have inherited admin duties on an old server running SCO Open Server 5. No changes have been made to this thing for a very long time. The server has started randomly disconnecting itself from the network. I have to reboot the server to get it to find the network again. It happens about once a week for the last month or so.
I'm looking for suggestions on where to look for error logs or for anything else I can look for to find the cause of the problem. I'm guessing that its a precursor to the server biting the dust, but if I can fix it, I'd like to.
I'll admit up front I got stuck with it because someone higher up decided that HP UX v10.20 and SCO Open Server 5 are the same thing. Logs certainly don't seem to be in the same place. Boy, you take a class one time.....

asadmin-start-instance
asadmin-start-instance(1AS) User Commands asadmin-start-instance(1AS)
NAME
asadmin-start-instance, start-instance - starts a server instance and all the services associated with it
SYNOPSIS
start-instance [--user admin_user] [--password admin_password] [--host local_host] [--port 4848] [--local=false] [--domain domain_name]
[--debug=false] [--passwordfile filename] [--secure|-s] instance_name
Use the start-instance command to start an instance with the instance name you specify. The start-instance command can be run both locally
and remotely. To start locally, with a domain name identified, the named instance must already exist within that domain. To start
remotely, the administration server must be running on the hostname and port number specified. The user authenticates using the password
identified for the administration server.
OPTIONS
--user administrative user associated for the instance.
--password administrative password corresponding to the administrative user.
--host host name of the machine hosting the administrative instance.
--port administrative port number associated with the administrative host.
--local determines if the command should delegate the request to administrative instance or run locally.
--domain name of the domain.
--debug starts the instance in debug mode.
--passwordfile file containing passwords appropriate for the command (e.g., administrative instance).
--secure if true, uses SSL/TLS to communicate with the administrative instance.
OPERANDS
instance_name name of the instance to be started.
Example 1: Using start-instance in local mode
asadmin> start-instance --domain domain1 admin-server
Instance admin-server started
Where: the admin-server instance is started on the local domain1 domain.
Example 2: Using start-instance in remote mode
asadmin> start-instance --user admin --password bluestar --host localhost --port 4848 server1
Instance server1 started
Where: the server1 instance is started on the remote domain associated with the specified user, password, host, and port number.
