    Server 2003 not waking up from standby fully.
    My Server was waking up and now it doent, it completely disapears from the network i have tryed to ping the servers ip but still nothing.
    It will go in standby ok and the lan wakes it up fine, but after a few seconds after it had been woken up the server dissapears from the network.
    please help me:cry:

    A server in standby? Now Ive heard everything :biggrin

    Seriously though, does it have a static IP? Also can you browse to any other resources on the LAN or even the internet from the server after it has been in standby.

    One word of advice: don't let your server go into sleep mode! :biggrin The sleep/hibernate/standby doesn't work well in XP and Vista, much less on a server-based OS!

    Why Server 2003 even has that functionality, I'll never know. :D

    Yes the server does have a static ip address i never put the server in standby it automaticly put it self into standby after a x amount of mins but i never had a problem with so i never changed it, but just recently the server doesnt even wake up. So I changed the x amount of mins to never and also completly disabled standby via the ACPI\Parameters in the Registry.

    That's odd, I have never seen Server 2k3 go into standby by itself.
