5.1 Set-up of the shutdown parameters
The Network Shutdown Module, on protected server boot, subscribes itself automatically to
list and sends its essential
data:
Z
IP Address or hostname of the server on which it is installed: So that the card can inform it of power events.
Z
Time required to shutdown the server (Shutdown Duration, configurable in the "Set-up" menu of each NSM): The card takes into account
the longest shutdown time of all the Network Shutdown Modules subscribed (This is the Shutdown duration of the
page to manage UPS shutdowns without affecting any of Shutdown Modules connected.
During normal operation, the Network Shutdown Module periodically checks its connection with the card.
In case of a major power event, the card sends information to the Network Shutdown Module which reacts according to the situation.
(shutdown order, programmed actions, messages to the administrator and to users via the network)
When the server shuts down, the Network Shutdown Module unsubscribes itself from the
5.1.1 Shutdown criteria managed by the Network Management Card
During an extended power failure, three criteria may cause the server shutdown procedure to be initiated. If several criteria are selected, (See
page
), the first criterion encountered will launch the shutdown procedure.
At the end of the shutdown procedure, when all servers have been shut down, the UPS may shut down to avoid unnecessary discharge of its
batteries, depending on its configuration.
