When I was shutting down my box (917LX) for the night, I reached the
usual SHUT6 message -- when whammo(!) -- system failure.

Yes, a system failure AFTER the shut6 message.

Here is the info:

SYSTEM ABORT 653 Subsystem 143 (File System)
Secondary status Info = -300 (not in error manual)
                        Subsys = 107

System Halt 7, $028D

FLT DEAD at the bottom of the console.

So I restarted the system and everything came up just fine, shut it down in a
normal manner again and after the SHUT6 message this time -- no system failure.

This system failure happens to me every now and again, but not too often.

Does anyone have an idea what this system failure is?

TIA,
Brian Donaldson.
