Incompatibility with windows server 2012 r2
Good afternoon The issue I am currently experiencing is between a readyNAS 102 and a HP proliant server running windows server 2012 r2 The problem has started occuring around 4 days ago, and whe...
Well, something is making the server shut down.
If something is wrong with the power, then conceivably when the NAS spins up, the power drops on the server (enough to either trigger the UPS or the server itself).
Even a bit more far-fetched is that something in the NAS<->PC traffic flow is somehow reaching the server, and making it misbehave.
So the obvious troubleshooting steps are to (a) remove the server from the network path or (b) move the NAS to a different power source.
You can do (a) by disconnecting the NAS from the network (doing a PC direct connect) or by just unplugging the server network connection. I was guessing that disconnecting the server would be more disruptive.
The NAS is small, surely you can move it for troubleshooting for a bit. I guess another troubleshooting test would be to unplug the server UPS from the mains, and connecting to the NAS admin page again.
BTW, I am thinking the NAS is not powered from the server's UPS. Am I wrong?
