Workaround
Win2K8 allows the redefinition of the power button press to mean “Go into
hibernate state” rather than “Power down.” If this configuration is enabled AND
the power button is pressed the BMC will get out of sync with the physical
power state since the BMC has no visibility into the changed OS
configuration.In the context of a server in a chassis, redefining the power
button to mean “hibernate” is not useful. In this environment, the OS should not
be configured to hibernate on a power button rather than power off.
If the OS is so configured and the power button is pressed, the power button
should be pressed a second time to bring the power back up. The OS should
be configured to power off in response to a power button.
A server in this condition can also be recovered by doing a “forced power off”
followed by a normal “power on”.
