One thing you don't want to do is to connect a UPS to another UPS. They do *NOT* like to be chained like that. I've worked at several places where they absolutely forbade any kind of in-rack UPS for equipment because there was a UPS system for the whole room, and they didn't want to risk frying everything in the room because of a single stupid in-rack UPS. -- Brad Knowles <[email protected]> LinkedIn Profile: <http://tinyurl.com/y8kpxu> _______________________________________________ Tech mailing list [email protected] https://lists.lopsa.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/tech This list provided by the League of Professional System Administrators http://lopsa.org/
