• Manages a graceful shutdown of attached equipment during utility power failures
• Prioritizes the timing of equipment shutdowns
• Shuts down and reboots any HP UPS and attached equipment based on a user-specified
schedule
• Delays restart after a power outage to sequence the startup of system components
• Customizes alert generation with modifiable popup dialog boxes, command execution,
and email and broadcast messages
• Monitors the status of the UPS and performs UPS diagnostics
• Displays power logs for analysis
For more information, refer to the power management CD provided with the UPS. For the
most up-to-date information, refer to www.hp.com.
