thanks for getting back to me. the situation we have is this. We have a server where the battery went a few weeks ago and it hasnt been restarted since. Everything has been running ok on it but it really needs a restart now after some updates. what I really need to know is if it will restart ok given the current config - force write back (caching unavailable due to dead battery). We're not changing the battery as the server is being replaced in the next few weeks.
Surely it should let you turn off without losing everything so you can replace a battery?
