If you issue a shutdown command to the system, the only way to get it
to start up again is to hit the power button.

We are using APC UPS and have the PowerChute Network Shutdown

is for the server to also power itself up after the UPS has
determined that safe power has returned.
Through a number of tests, it seems the only way I can get this to
happen is via virtually pulling the plug while the server is still
running so we use the "restart automatically after a power failure"
option of energy saver.
The issue is, I can't seem to get the "shutdown" command to do
anything except restart and/or halting the system. I was assuming I
could use shutdown to get my important processes shutdown, then have
the UPS pull power.
Is this whooly thinking? Am I missing something here that would make
this easier to accomplish? I'm assuming I'm not the first one to
attempt such a task....
thanks!
