My new (and first) FreeNAS box has a peculiar bug. When I shut it down (either by Web GUI, poweroff/shutdown command over SSH, or the REST API), it will often start itself back up again. Then if I shut it down again, it will stay off.
I do not mean it reboots instead of shutting down. I mean it shuts down - fans off, power LED off - and then after about 3 seconds it spontaneously starts up again.
I have no idea if it's FreeNAS or the motherboard or something else. I have tried changing the CMOS battery, I have not tried flashing the BIOS.
The BIOS setting for auto power on after AC power loss/restore is disabled, as is power on by mouse/keybvoard (though it does not have either plugged in anyway). Wake On LAN is enabled, and I use this to remotely start it when required.
Does anyone have any theories?
