set the time in your OS to reference the BIOS time as UTC; in which

to adjust the "alarm" time in the BIOS to IST - 5:30.
I setup the alarm at per UTC time.
Still did not boot.
Strange. May be your motherboard has a buggy BIOS; check to see if
there is an update and/or contact tech support.
Anything particular about the way to shutdown the
server (CentOS) so that it
boots using BIOS ALARM function
I have a script that uses /sbin/poweroff to shut down the system when
there is no "ESTABLISHED" network connections beteween 00:30 and 07:30
hours. RTC is programmed to boot the system @ 09:00 hours.
Thx
BTW, it would be nice to put your name. What is RSCL Mumbai?
