Author Topic: Doremi Showvault-4 resetting during show Andrew Freeman Film Handler Posts: 9 From: Springfield, Vermont, USA Registered: Apr 2017 posted 03-17-2019 01:04 PM                     Hey gang, As I’m sure you’re all far too familiar with, I went out of town for five minutes, and my doremi shoe vault-4 starting expiriencing an issue where it will randomly engage a power start up while the projector is on, citing an invalid boot sequence, and then will randomly enter a session open and make the server reset itself, stopping any shows in progress. It’s worth mentioning there is currently only one power source in the back of the server, as my technician is still waiting to receive a replacement, since, we placed one of the two power sources into a separate sever that wasn’t working, before this issue even presented itself. Any thoughts? Thanks so much  |  IP: Logged Dave Macaulay Film God Posts: 2321 From: Toronto, Canada Registered: Apr 2001 posted 03-17-2019 03:56 PM                     The improper shutdown warning generally means it lost power, so maybe the remaining PSU is flaky?  |  IP: Logged Andrew Freeman Film Handler Posts: 9 From: Springfield, Vermont, USA Registered: Apr 2017 posted 03-17-2019 06:06 PM                     I’ll give it a run and see what happens, thanks so much  |  IP: Logged Jim Cassedy Phenomenal Film Handler Posts: 1661 From: San Francisco, CA Registered: Dec 2006 posted 03-17-2019 06:33 PM                     One of the screening rooms I work at had almost the identical problem about a year ago. One of the power supplies was getting flakey, and even though, in theory, the server should have been able to operate OK on the remaining supply, it started exhibiting odd behavior, including crashing & error messages similar to the ones you are getting. In our case, replacing both power supplies solved the problem.  |  IP: Logged Marco Giustini Film God Posts: 2713 From: Reading, UK Registered: Nov 2007 posted 03-17-2019 11:57 PM                     Hi Not sure I fully understand. The server power cycles and then reset? If it’s just power cycling randomly, replace the power supply. If you had two, you probably wouldn’t have experienced that issue.  |  IP: Logged
