benjistark Posted November 6, 2014 #1 Posted November 6, 2014 Hi, Environment: ~ I am using GIGABYTE GA-H97N-WIFI Motherboard and running on DSM 5.0-4528 Update 1. ~ I am staying in a country with timezone GMT+8 ~ I have enabled Sync with NTP server in DSM. Objective: I want my server to auto shutdown and startup at certain time everyday. Problem: Everytime I reboot my server, the clock in my BIOS will always reset to time equivalent to GMT+0. This will screw up the auto startup setting in my DSM. Workaround: Since I found no solution in this forum, I decided to achieve my objective with this workaround. ~ I remove the auto Startup setting in my DSM. It only has auto shutdown setting in my DSM. ~ I let the clock in my BIOS remain in GMT+0. ~ I enable "Resume by Alarm" setting in my BIOS and set the desired startup time 8 hours earlier than my local time. It works flawlessly.
