Hi all:
We are going to be getting some APC SmartUPS's and BackUPS's for several of our
systems here, and I was wondering if anyone out there has a daemon that
checks the serial port on either a DECstation or Alpha to determine if
the machine needs to be shut down because the UPS batteries are near
exhaustion. I know APC has software for Alpha/OSF, but we don't really
need anything that fancy. We just want to check the battery low signal
so we know when to shut down. Also, some of these will be going on
DECstations, for which APC has no software.
I'll summarize, as always, regardless of the outcome of my query.
Thanks in advance,
--Lee
