It all depends on what is required. It might be possible to script the stopping of certain services so the server appears to be down and then after the reboot it's running as normal. What is trying to be accomplished by delaying the reboot?

Wouldn't this defeat the purpose of the server being actually down for a set period of time? -----Original Message----- From: thin-bounce@xxxxxxxxxxxxx [mailto:thin-bounce@xxxxxxxxxxxxx] On Behalf Of Joe Shonk Sent: Friday, January 16, 2009 1:15 PM To: thin@xxxxxxxxxxxxx Subject: [THIN] Re: unattended start up For what types of workload? There are some tools that are specific to Proliants as they use iLO. You can also run Magic Packet from another machine as a scheduled task to perform a wake-on-lan. For a scheduled, delayed restart you can use the built in shutdown command and specify how long to wait.
