Unexpected reboot on vsphere

Had anyone faced the similar problem as myself?

I got 2 of my vsphere ESX machine rebooted unexpectedly.

It's been rock solid in my environment. Your log files don't actually reveal a reason, maybe you could post the rest of the logfiles as well...

so far this is the 1st time I see this problem, 2 of the ESX machine rebooted at the same time. I cannot find anything at all from all the log, suspected power trip. Will monitor more

I do not have LSI on the server, is running on PERC, is a DELL R710 machine

1 of the vsphere server on R710 went to purple screen. When I press the key on the console, I found the server went in to debug mode. Anyway, I had cancelled the core dump. Just curious anyone experience on this?

PERC controllers mostly have LSI Megaraid Controller chips in them that is where the LSI is coming from
