I have a problem where my server occasionally turns off, usually late at night. I'm wondering if its a power supply issue as I can't find anything in the software (WSE 2012r2) to indicate that a process is telling it to shut down.
So, I bought a PSU tester (Amazon.com: HDE 20+4 Pin LCD Power Supply Tester for ATX, ITX, BTX, PCI-E, SATA, HDD: Computers & Accessories) HDR 20+4
The PSU only has an 8-pin and 4-pin connector coming out of it. So I plugged those both in, but I can't get the power supply itself to turn on without it being connected to the motherboard! Quite the catch-22. Any suggestions?
