November 1, 20205 yr Morning all, A strange issue has started to plague me, for some reason when I issue a restart the server appears to shutdown correctly but wont ever power back up again. Power is still applied to the server and if I hard reset it the server comes back up no problem with no discernible errors. Log file from shut down is attached. Any ideas?
November 1, 20205 yr ...sounds like a hardware problem to me...maybe bad BIOS backup-battery or some kind of config change in BIOS that prevents this?
November 1, 20205 yr Author I've not changed anything in BIOS to cause the issue as far as I'm aware. Quote
November 1, 20205 yr Maybe you did upgrade the BIOS and some APM-Settings have changed? I am not aware of a feature or function, where you could replace the command behind the "shutdown" or "reboot" Icons/Buttons on the main menu. As this used to work for you in the past, I cannot think of any other root-cause than this.
November 1, 20205 yr Author the only thing that might have changed the equation is the use of an APC UPS, but I fail to see how this would effect the shutdown. does the log file i posted shed any light?
November 2, 20205 yr Author Have done some playing and still no closer to the answer, nothing I can see in BIOS causing this issue.
