auto reboot by UPS manager

[Gary Yu]

Hi all,

we are using HP UPS manager II to protect servers. there will be a planed power maintenance in the building this weekend, just to be safe, we will shutdown all servers ahead of time, instead of letting ups manager do so when it detect power off. We will issue "shutdown -h" command on all servers, but NOT turn off the switch on servers.

what I'm concerning is, since there will be no load on the ups while power goes off, so the battery will remain full voltage, and when power restored, will it automatically start server anyway (even the battery is not dry)?

thanks,
Gary

Gary,

FYI HP Power Manager 3.2 is now supporting HP-UX 11i platform. You may view more information and download the software for free from the HPPM page http://h18004.www1.hp.com/products/servers/proliantstorage/power-protection/software/power-manager/index.html
