Hi Everyone,

I have posted here as there appears to be nowhere to post relating to IFS admin / infrastructure.

Does anyone have any thoughts on the best way to auto-shutdown a Windows Server environment that runs IFS APPS10 in the event of an extended power outage?

We were told to shut the system down in a very specific and manual way when I did the IFS admin training about 18 months ago:

  • shut down TA and Reports virtual servers  
  • run shutdown script on MW virtual server then shut it down
  • run shutdown script on DB server then shut it down

This is fine when you are doing a manual shutdown but what about when there is a power outage?

I can get my UPS to send shutdown requests to the windows servers in our infrastructure, but this would just shut them down. Does anyone have a setup that allows them to run the required scripts in the required order then shut down the IFS servers?

My specific environment is a Windows Hyper-V cluster (2016) running a mixture of WIndows Server 2016 and 2019 virtual servers. 

Thanks in advance for any thoughts and advice.

Matthew
