Thanks, Goran-
These are W2K boxes for the most part,
and the problem child is a W2K box. I will look at the power management settings
in the OS to see what might be there.

Automatic restart after power failure - Proliant 1850R
Dave,
I had this problem
with some older Dells and APC software. It was the older Dells that were
running Windows Server 2003 that would not reboot. The identical Dells that
were running Windows 2000 Server were just fine. There was even a case of one
Dell that was Win2K which we upgraded to Win2K3 that used to reboot and then
didnt. After much discussion with APC and some with Dell it all boiled down
to something in 2003 was handling the power switch differently and there had
to be a BIOS change to deal with it and Dell was not going to put one out due
to machine age etc etc so the answer was live with it.
I have a vague
recollection that there may have been a fix from MS but cannot really
remember.

Way back I had an
1850r do this and could never figure it out. I later flashed the bios
to a newer revision for another issue and it seemed to fix the restart
problem. Maybe it was a fluke or the bois was corrupt but I have not had a
problem since. Do all your Proliants have the same bios
revision?
Hope this
helps,
Gil

OK, here's one for
those of you with long memories....
I have several
Proliant 1850Rs on line. They were all configured with Smart Start, and all
appear to have the same BIOS settings, including the advanced settings
accessible after hitting Ctrl-A. The board switches are set the same on all
machines.
All but one restart
automatically after a power failure. One does not, and I cannot find
anything relating to this behavior in the BIOS settings or online at
HP. A query to their support forum turned up another user with the
same issue, and no response from anyone to the question.
Does anybody here
remember how to set this?
