We use APC SmartUPS 3000 (3kVA) with 3 servers on each. All the servers are connected to their respective UPS via Serial. When the power goes out and the battery is low, it sends a signal to the servers which shut down all the services and shut themselves down. -----Original Message----- From: Lorie Gordon [mailto:lgordon@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx] Sent: 08 May 2002 3:45 PM To: [ExchangeList] Subject: [exchangelist] UPS http://www.MSExchange.org/ I am looking for a UPS that is specifically for use with Exchange Servers. I want something that will shut down services before bringing down the server. I have had problems in the past with the UPS bringing down the server and as a result I have experienced database corruption. Any suggestions would be appreciated!
