SUMMARY: IBM e326 + RHEL4 => unexpected shutdown

[Patrik Koch <patrik koch philips com>]

Thanks to Jussi Silvennoinen, Stephen J. Smoogen and Frank Peeters for
their answers.

Frank Peeters got the solution:
The e326 with 252 Opterons (2.6 GHz) requires a new BMC firmware (1.13
released last Thursday).
(http://www-1.ibm.com/support/docview.wss?uid=psg1MIGR-57847)

After installation of the new BMC firmware on Monday the system has been
stable for 3 days now.

Original question:

I've just installed RHEL4 on an e326 server, with undesired result:
After some time of inactivity (around 2 hours) the system goes down and
halts.
That's a bad behaviour for a server.

Any ideas where to look at? I checked BIOS, crontab, etc.
The hardware is new for me, also RHEL4 (kernel is 2.6.9-5.ELsmp).
/var/log/messages contain lines like:
      Apr 25 17:35:11 ls0150 shutdown: shutting down for system halt
      Apr 25 17:35:11 ls0150 init: Switching to runlevel: 0

Thanks in advance for your help!
