Brandon Posted September 27, 2006 Share Posted September 27, 2006 What exactly is the command that is ran when using the 'restart server' option? I tried this on a Windows 2003 machine, it shutdown the machine and did not restart it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ECF Posted September 27, 2006 Share Posted September 27, 2006 I will ask Luis to post what the exact commands are. I know that initially a command is sent to shut down all TCAdmin services, it then should simply issue the windows restart command. I will let him verify it though. I tested it twice on our Win2k3 test box without issue. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LFA Posted September 27, 2006 Share Posted September 27, 2006 This is what we use: http://msdn.microsoft.com/library/default.asp?url=/library/en-us/wmisdk/wmi/reboot_method_in_class_win32_operatingsystem.asp It has been tested on Windows 2000, XP and 2003. Could it be that the server got stuck while shutting down? Linux uses the reboot command. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ECF Posted September 27, 2006 Share Posted September 27, 2006 I just tested it on our test box gp.tcadmin.com and it worked fine. I will also add that our box is actually 64 bit Win2k3 as well. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Brandon Posted September 27, 2006 Author Share Posted September 27, 2006 I've just tested 2 more machines both worked fine. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ECF Posted September 27, 2006 Share Posted September 27, 2006 Were you able to confirm anything with the first machine? Did it hang on shutdown? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LFA Posted September 28, 2006 Share Posted September 28, 2006 You can verify that TCAdmin does a restart by checking the Event Viewer. In the System Log filter by source = USER32. You will see something like this: Event Type: Information Event Source: USER32 Event Category: None Event ID: 1074 Date: 9/16/2006 Time: 2:00:28 AM User: NT AUTHORITY\SYSTEM Computer: YOURSERVER Description: The process winlogon.exe has initiated the restart of computer YOURSERVER on behalf of user NT AUTHORITY\SYSTEM for the following reason: No title for this reason could be found Reason Code: 0x80000000 Shutdown Type: restart Comment: Restarting server. Resquested by TCAdmin administrator. For more information, see Help and Support Center at http://go.microsoft.com/fwlink/events.asp. Data: 0000: 00 00 00 80 ...?
