Hi,
I have a DL 380 G6 server and .
The OS : win server 2003 32bit.
The problem is : when the server shutdown and restart later the date return to 2009 and the time return to 12 :00.
I changed the battery but the server do the same.
Please , i need the solution quickly.

Can you check if you run any program which try to make date/time synchronisation with a time server or a router? Disconnect your server from your network and make a restart to see if you still have problem with date.

Hi,

Is your server a member of a domain?

Run these two commands to check date and time.
date /t
time /t

net stop w32time
net start w32time
w32tm /resync

check date and time again.
If you still have problems after rebooting the server, then please locate what your PDC is.
srvinfo | findstr /i pdc
write down the IP address of the PDC
run this:
1. w32tm /config /manualpeerlist:IPaddress_of_a_DChere,0x8 /syncfromflags:MANUAL
2. net stop w32time
3. net start w32time
4. w23tm /resync

Hope it helps.

Thanks alot,the problem was the date on the router.And now the date on server are stable afer i changed the time on the router.
But i have another problem :
The server have 6 DDR RAM ,every one 2GB.
The BIOS show 10GB just.
Why the BIOS do not show the 12GB of RAM size.
Is it reasonably that one of them are not working,although the server does not show any warning.
