APC Smart ups SUA1500 and auto restart not working on server with independe

[Anonymous user]

I have one server which successfully shuts down via the network shutdown feature of the network management card software..

But this server will not turn back on once the signal is sent/ ups turns back on.. My other 2 servers come back online fine..

I've checked the BIOS setting.. its set to "power on"..

The only thing i can think of is that i'm not using the integrated NIC card.. i'm using a seperate one.. an Intel Pro/1000 MT Desktop adapter.. as the internal one wasnt gigabit..

I'm thinking that for some reason, the nic card isnt getting the signal to come back on...

Any thoughts on this one

Thanks

Hello All,

Just as an FYI, the UPS does not send a turn on command through any NMC or NIC card in the PC. Therefore anything occurring like this would be deferred to the PC manufacturer. The UPS only reboots itself after it sees power restored, which would explain as you have said, why the other machines turn back on.
