How to Monitoring UPS

[Anonymous user]

Hi,

This is my first time in UPS area..I have a doubt to use the UPS in my trial.

I already install the UPS 1000 in the servers and configure the IP that related to 3
servers (clients).

The question its how i want to know the signal from UPS that need the server to be shutdown.
Its there any interface that can show the control of the UPS that relate to all its clients?the web maybe..
many thanxs.

Are you using PowerChute Business Edition or PowerChute Network Shutdown?

If you are using an older version of PCBE basic (or a current deluxe version), you will have a console option that you can use to monitor all your installed PCBE agents that are on the network.

If you are using a newer version of PCBE basic (8.0 and up) you will only have the agent view via a browser to each server. You could purchase an AP9617/9619 to monitor the UPS itself...although this will not let you monitor your PCBE agents from the AP9617 interface.

If you have PowerChute Network Shutdown you must have an NMC already and you can view a list of your PCNS clients in the "Powerchute" tab in the NMC interface. This can be found under the "UPS" tab --> "Powerchute". You can also use this NMC interface to access each client individually.

Could you clarify your question a little?
