Do your HP servers have any sort of remote access cards in them similar to DRAC cards in Dells? It's a little web server embedded in a management chip that stays powered on in the server as long the power supplies have power. It allows you to remote boot, reboot, kvm, etc...

This may sound like a silly question, but I've only ever used APC and PowerChute Basic with my servers, which is great at shutting down servers during power outages and what not, but now I need a solution that will turn the server back on. I understand that my Dell servers have settings in their bios that can be set to start the server in the event that power is reapplied (PE2900), but I've a pair of older HP Proliants (An old ML310 and a ML330) that I don't think have this feature. Is there something in the Full version of PowerChute that would turn a server back on when the power is reapplied? ~ Upgrade to Next Generation Antispam/Antivirus with Ninja! ~ ~ <http://www.sunbelt-software.com/SunbeltMessagingNinja.cfm> ~
