HP proliant gen8 NAS

[zorba]

Hi.
running windows 7 ultimate on a HP proliant gen8 - > NAS

but I cant make our KODI player wake up the server with a WOL package etc, neither my can my pcs. ( though a asus N16 router with standard firmware)

will this software: Lights-Out 2.0

be able to control my home NAS, so it can wakeup/shutdown etc, also by using KODI as a WOL package transmitter.

thanks.

I can't speak for Kodi but Lights-Out 2.0 works with a HP Gen 8.

You should first verify the network card settings on your HP Gen 8. It may be necessary to install HP network card drivers.

HP Gen 8 only supports hibernation, so wake-up is not very fast.

After installation you should wait at least 60s, then login should work.
What happes if you click on login button?

hi again.

I have used hibernate and task manager in windows 7 until now to wake from hibernate.

Now i have installed windows 10 enterprise LTSB on my NAS.
using windows 10 taskmanager could not! wake the server up from hibernation.. so i started looking for solutions.. using your software again.

I can logon to the interface on the nas now, and also set calendar items to wake up from hibernation.

but it dosnt work. the server dont start up from hibernation...

You have to enable wake timers: https://www.green-it-software.com/help/ ... r_plan.htm
