PowerChute Vmware Vcenter configuration

Anonymous user · ‎2021-06-30

Hi

Please can any one help me for configuring vmware HA cluster ( 3VMs, Vcenter, 2 Hosts) auto shutdown using powerchute.

i completed following steps

1) Downloaded OVF template and installed as a VM

2) Connected UPS 10 KVA

3) Configured IP addresses for SNMP card and Powercute VM.

Then i tried to configure but i'm confused with other configuration. Please help me for further configuration.

Thank you.

Hi Bill, Thank you for the answer. Configured UPS and Powerchute properly in vCsenter environment. There was no errors in the powerchute log. But after unplug power from UPS, VMs didn't shutdown. What could be the issue? We are using ESXi 5.0.

Hi,

The configuration is based on your setup and needs. I suggest you review Application Note 180 and the PowerChute VMware User's Guide If you have specific questions after reviewing the documentation we will be happy to help.
