Sometimes a running process or service can prevent a Server from rebooting. How do you schedule the reboot process? What services are you running on it? Have you checked the eventlogs for any entries that might tell you what was running when it should have shutdown?

Hi,
Because of our MRP Program, our server MUST do a auto reboot every night, I have downloaded this program "Switch Off"
http://www.download.com/3120-20_4-0.html?qt=switch+off&tg=dl-20
I use this "Switch Off" program to do a server auto reboot.
I question is why my server sometimes unable reboot to windows when it doing a auto reboot? Is NOT how to prevent server reboot. My server MUST reboot every night.
