To test power redundancy, they occasionally drop one power feed or the other--with ample heads up--and check that all devices are functioning. Other than call-home events, we have not had any surprises so far. Testing for a full power outage (both sides) is a lot harder, but it has been done here a few times. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- For IBM-MAIN subscribe / signoff / archive access instructions, send email to [email protected] with the message: INFO IBM-MAIN
