BIOS CMOS – Hibernate mode in Power Management

DaGunny — Sat, 23 Jan 2010 16:25:38 +0000

How do I enable the function so that I can set up the computer to go into hibernate mode? I’ve clicked my desired choice in Power Options but it does not work. I was told that I had to go into BIOS and enable it. There are 2 options there, but I do not know how to proceed and I do not want to mess anything up.

Dead battery on APC Smart-UPS 1400

Sid700 — Sun, 14 Jun 2009 06:04:08 +0000

The UPS has died – no lights, no beeps, and the fan is out. I know the battery was dying. So I’m sure it’s dead. But is it normal for all the lights, fan to not function when the battery dies eventhough the unit is plugged in?

I really don’t want to buy the battery and find out that it’s the unit is dead too.
TIA.

Power Consumption and UPS sizing

Augusta82 — Thu, 30 Apr 2009 17:18:20 +0000

Hello,

I am trying to determine if our current power infrastructure is capable of providing the required power for an BladeSystem c7000. the goal is to migrate several of our older servers that are coming off of lease to the blade using vmware’s p2v (physical to virtual) tool.

Our current power infrastructure consists of an APC Symmetra PX UPS. The UPS is a 208V 20kW system. Are current load is at 63%.

Is there an easy way to calculate whether or not we would be able to provide power to the blade and all of our current hardware during the p2v process ?

Any insight would be greatly appreciate. And please let me know if you need any additional information. Thanks !

Wake on LAN: No light displays when the computer is in power off state

4244578 — Tue, 03 Mar 2009 02:50:19 +0000

In BIOS on the Power Management Setup: I have enabled Resume on PME Enabled.
Again, in NIC cards’ property in the power management section: I have enabled allow this device to wake the computer and only allow management station to wake the computer. But I even don’t know why there in blinking light in nic card even the computer is off. and I don’t see there is no option as Wake On Lan in BIOS. Any one can help me to setup WOL? or My computer doesn’t support WOL? Should I connect some wires from motherboard to NIC inside my computer?
My computer is Lenovo.
