Lights-Out for Windows Server Solutions 2011/2012
|
This section answers some frequently asked questions about standby and hibernation.
Most probably because your are running with a standard VGA graphics driver. Install the required graphics card driver to enable suspend.
You need to enable hibernation under power options. See requirements for more details.
Have a look at eventlog, check for blocking services or drivers. Also verify that external drives (USB or eSATA) can be used with standby. Sometimes a driver update is required to make that work.
When a manual initiated standby is working check the runtime diagram in Lights-Out. All sources which keep your server active are recorded there.
This is either a driver problem or a misconfigured network card. Update your drivers and verify your network card settings.
