7010 WLC - Continuously rebooting

    All...looking for some help and/or explanation as to why the 7010 WLC continuously reboots after 90 mins. Running ArubaOS 8.3.0.9-FIPS. Fan Temperatures, CPUs, etc. are all within acceptable limits.

    "show version" would tell you why it is rebooting.
    Also, I would contact TAC to see if there are any crashes "show crashinfo"

    I've opened a TAC case....awaiting reply/input from them now.

    Results from a 'Show version?' 

    Reboot Cause: Power Cycle (Intent:cause:register ee:ee:50:3)

    Have seen this referenced previously with the only 'solution' provided being to upgrade IOS which I have done....2x now....with no success.

    Seems like it's losing power. May be a defective power supply, or an unstable power source?

    I know it's not an unstable power-source as it's plugged into a UPS. Unsure what commands to run, if there are any, to check to see if the power-supply is stable or not in it. The reboot times are staggered  as sometimes it'll reboot every 2-3 hours, other times it'll run for at/about 12 hrs. then reboot. The 'longest' it's been running, since this started happening, was 11 hrs.

    What you could do is plug a console cable up to the controller and leave it connected to a computer to see what if anything is printed on the console screen at reboot

    Yep! I have done that as well, and watched it/recorded the output where all it says is: "Rebooting."

    It definitely seems to be something to do with the internal power-supply, but considering it's hardwired into the main-board, unsure exactly if it's even remotely possible to replace it.
