Raje,

HP currently do not offer a power protection option for the RP8400 - even the configurator backs this up.

The only avaliable UPS is the 2.1KW mdoel which has just gone into constraint and is taking weeks to get hold if your lucky.

For a machine of this current draw an external room UPS is usually utilised - the spec's of the RP8400 are:

HP Server rp8400 Fully Loaded Configuration:
??? Sixteen 875-MHz PA-8700+ processors
??? 64 GB of Memory
??? 16 PCI cards
??? 4 cell boards
??? 4 internal hard drives
??? 2 DVD drives
??? 2 Core I/O cards
??? 6 bulk power supplies.
??? Theoretical Maximum power consumption: 5035 VA (25.2 A @ 200 VAC)
??? Typical power consumption: 3046 VA (15.2 A @ 200 VAC) based on 8 x way spec

Hope this helps.

Cheers

Jim

Doesn't get hotter of the press than that.
