Hello,
We monitor several Windows computers using software from a 3rd party vendor. (N-Able Technologies) Recently on our servers, we have observed that after some automated routines we would find that the "Unscheduled Shutdown" window was displayed after these routines. After asking a few questions with N-Able, I found out that their Restart routine included the shutdown /f /r command to ensure that the shutdown is completed successfully.
My question would be the following:
Could this potentially be dangerous to any Servers that we may have with a SQL and/or Exchange database on them? Would it possibly cause corruption if the databases are forced to stop?
We have Servers that range from 2003 to 2012 with the majority of them being SBS servers.
Thank you,
Jesse
