My approach would be to have the UPS trigger a script that would issue the shutdown command on the server with something like 3 minutes or more of lead time. This will issue a warning to the users, who should then save their work. Then, at some short interval just before the server actually shuts down, use pssh to shutdown the clients. db ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Everyone hates slow websites.
