Restart server once power comes back on??

Anonymous user · ‎2021-06-30

We have a Powerchute 3000xl, along with a network management card and each server has the Powerchute Network Shutdown installed. We had a power outage last night, and the APC did a graceful shutdown of all the servers, which is awesome, but it only brought one back online once the power was restored.

I checked the settings of the server that was brought back online automatically and it was no different from the rest of the servers. Any idea what settings I should be looking at if I want the servers to come back online once power has been resotored?

this behavior should not have anything to do with the UPS or the NMC, it depends on the BIOS settings.
