About 8:30pm I got a call saying the system has this message on the screen and it reboots to that message and that's it. Sure enough, I went over to his office and there it was.

Amazingly, the system booted correctly. I rechecked all log files to see of there was any issue related to the error. None were found.
We now pushed his upgrade cycle a bit closer in time. Also we noticed that we have some surprising issues with servers we did not build or we inherited from previous IT companies.
