Per your request, i have uploaded the report file to the dropbox provided.
FYI When I was generating the report, on the 4th stage of the report generation, the server rebooted, and the server kept on the following loop several times,
power supply clicking noise 3 times then fan speed up for 2 seconds and goes off, light on power button goes off and on.
It was like the server got stuck on a loop boot attempt.
Whenever the server rebooted I wasn't around, except once, and report from the office manager was that the fan kept going for few minutes like I explained before, but this is the first time I've seen doing it this way, and after several times on this loop it actually proceeded to normal post and boot, then I ran the DSET again and it completed the report generation without failure.
Coincidentally , when i order the first power supply it came defective and it was doing the same thing. It was driving me nuts.. So after going round and round trying to figure it out, I ordered another power supply from another supplier, and that fixed my problem. Haven't had a single problem ever since.

Good morning, Daniel.
I have sent you an email requesting a DSET report from the server to further assist you. Let me know when the report has been uploaded.

Daniel,
Did you find out what was causing this? My T300 has started doing this. I updated firmware and drivers, etc... but still reboots periodically.
Any help would be appreciated.
Thanks,
Helmut

Yes, it was actually a bad power supply.
Coincidentally , when i order the first power supply it came defective and it was doing the same thing. It was driving me nuts.. So after going round and round trying to figure it out, I ordered another power supply from another supplier, and that fixed my problem. Haven't had a single problem ever since.
I hope this may help you.
Good luck.
Daniel
