Hi. In the last week, the server has shut completely down three times. I replaced the batteries in the PDU. Power went out again. I swapped out the PDU with a temporary surge protector. Power went out again. I replaced the surge protector with a new 30 min. UPS, but the server would not turn on. So I ran the power cord directly to the electrical outlet and after 15 minutes of being offline the server booted up. I am worried to shutdown the server and plug back into the UPS due to the server is supporting a retail store at the moment. Any suggestions.
Thanks for the suggesting the power pack. It seems there are memory parity issues and sensors on the motherboard also affecting the performance of this out-dated server. I guess it is time to replace.

Check the system BIOS. I know that in certain HP systems you can disable the power button so that it doesnt do anything. It's to stop the system being accidently shut down
i got this error 80028ea6 while trying to connect my ps3 to the internet through ps3 proxy server. what fixed it for me is, I had to reset my proxy server (shut it down). Before shutting it down there is a tab for replacing files. Make sure you remove all files from this tab and then shutdown. next restart proxy server and make sure there is nothing under replace files tab. To prevent this error from happening again when you go to replace files, replace them one file at a time. proxy server can not replace more than one .pkg at a time.
Firstly, shut down the server. Open the top cover and look for the RAID card battery. Should be easy enough to spot it. Unplug it from the board and replace with the new one. Power on your server and look for change notifications.
How big is your UPS backup. Small home / office only last a few hours before the battery drains. Their role is to allow time to save work and shut properly. Large enterprise UPS's last longer, but are dependent on battery bank size and configuration.
Somewhere in the setup instructions type the ipaddress of the router in internet explorer and if you have the correct credentials to get in this device you may set the sleep time or shut that off
I have a similar setup on my Small Business Server and an 1100 Watt backup. It will run my server for 30 to 45 minutes and sends the signal to shut the server down when power gets critical so my server will do a clean shutdown. I've replaced the battery once in 3 years so I would say the 1300 Watt UPS will be sufficient to operate your server for a short period of time before doing a clean shutdown. (You may get an hour or so out of it before it shuts your system down). Be sure it has either a serial or usb connection to keep your server apprised of its status.
