ecx Posted May 25, 2021 Share Posted May 25, 2021 Not sure what is at fault. Just seems to randomly shut off. Twice last week. No power outages. 6.9.2, but I've noticed this behaviour even during 6.8.x - leading me to speculate - maybe my server power supply or my UPS. My server UPS says: POWER UPS Load: 17.0 % - 76 Watts UPS status:Online LOWBATT Battery charge:100.0 Percent Runtime left:1.4 Minutes Nominal power:450 Watts It's an old UPS, but I did change the battery in it with a new one last year. Should I be targeting a specific size when shopping UPS? Nothing obvious in the logs. Quote Link to comment
ChatNoir Posted May 25, 2021 Share Posted May 25, 2021 Hello @ecx, To see if the UPS is the issue you could run the server for a time without it. It is not ideal for sure. When you changed your battery, did you reinitialized the firmware ? On APC UPS you have to run some test on a PC and change the install date from the SW. I suppose that other supplier will probably have similar options. Quote Link to comment
ecx Posted May 25, 2021 Author Share Posted May 25, 2021 Huh... no I did not. Didn’t even know the firmware Reset was a thing. I’ll give it a shot. Thanks. I’m reluctant not running unraid on my UPS; my neighbourhood has a bad history of brown outs in the summer. But it is a good suggestion to eliminate my UPS as the culprit. Quote Link to comment
