I guess I have no choice except to enable the option "UPS shutdown after OS shutdown". I guess what I am looking for is a feature in Dell Servers, to force startup if one of the PSUs lost power (OFF) and then gets power (ON) WHILE Server is in shutdown mode. In this particular scenario, I wanted somehow to force server to startup. Say for example, battery runtime is 60 mins, grid power just turned off, server PSU2 becomes OFF, UPS is now providing battery power to server PSU1, 20 mins later UPS initiates graceful shutdown, (we still have 40 mins of runtime left), server is now shutdown with PSU1 ON (on battery power) and PSU2 is OFF, UPS is still running, 20 mins later grid power is back ON (before 60 mins mark is elapsed), UPS is still powered up (never did shut off anyway), power is back to PSU2, server STAYS in shutdown. What else can I remove to start fresh this is where I need yours guys help to help me fill in the blank. When the button turns grey, you can safely shutdown or reboot the server computer. Delete c:program filesfilemaker directory 3. Uninstall Filemaker Server, Bonjour, Java from add and remove programs 2. I was looking for a method to startup the server AFTER OS graceful shutdown AND before UPS runs out of battery (Before UPS shuts off). Trying a clean slate, well as clean as I can get without formatting the server. after OS graceful shutdown, it would shut off power completely to UPS and all outlets, and then when grid power is back ON, the UPS would turn on and then server would auto-start of course. We have twice had to restart the Filemaker Server due to the fact that whilst it was running apparently OK, it did not allow me to administer items (in terms of turning individual d/bases on and off or downloading d/bases). Thanks, yes my UPS is CyberPower and does have the option to "Shutdown UPS" after x mins of graceful OS shutdown and it would work that way with no issues.
