UPS Controller

This appendix explains the UPS controller (UPC) that controls the uninterruptible
power supply (UPS) unit.

D.1

Overview

The UPS is a unit to ensure a stable supply of power to the system even in the event
of a power supply failure or a massive blackout.

When the UPC port on the server is connected to the UPS signal cable that has a
UPC interface, if the UPS detects a power failure, it notifies the server of the failure
so that the server can perform emergency shutdown processing. This stops the
server safely.

D.2
