Phinix1 Posted November 16, 2016 Share Posted November 16, 2016 Hi, i have a new HP Gen8 Microserver and i have a problem with the WOL functionality. When i want to wake up my Server with a magic packet from my tablet/smartphone (with an app) or my Kodi media center (running on a raspberry 2) it doesn't wake up, nothing happens. WOL in the BIOS is activated, also on the OS Windows Server 2016 Essentials. I have also installed Lights Out (not iLO) on the Server and my Clients, in this case everything is working fine. I have absolutely no idea why Lights Out is working and other Apps not. Hopefully you can help me Thanks! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rich1983 Posted November 19, 2016 Share Posted November 19, 2016 I don't know how to wake the machine on LAN, but you can use iLO to boot it remotely. Also Powershell may have a cmdlet to do that? Sent from my Nexus 6 using Tapatalk Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kitenski Posted February 24, 2017 Share Posted February 24, 2017 Did you have to do anything to get hibernate working once the OS was installed. I have 2012 Essentials R2, all the latest drivers and firmware but my G8 crashes when I try to hibernate. Basically all the fans and lights stay on but the server isn't accesible from the network, from iLO remote console and needs rebooting. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
