Good morning,
We have a Dell server that is running MS Server 2012. We are running it using a static IP address. All its used for at the moment is to run our SQL database.
We had an instance a few days ago where the server was not responding to any communication attempts. It was working fine up until 10:30pm and then just went incognito. I wasn't able to RDP into it or ping it.
The only fix was for me to switch it over to a DHCP address (which responded OK) and then back to a static IP but this time a different one from the original IP.
Along with a colleague I've checked the event logs on both the affected server and also our DC and can find nothing untoward happening around that time in any of the logs.
Would anyone have any idea why this may have happened and other than the default windows logs, are there any other things we can check to try and track down the issue.
Many thanks in advance
