    Hi all,

    I have recently installed a APC UPS on a HP server, connected via USB, the drivers are installed.

    However I have not installed the APC software as from reading the web it can cause the server to hang etc.

    Any other thoughts on what software to use please guys

    I use business suite and works very very well, and you can add additional scripts to gracefully shut down other servers that are on the same ups. I tend to like 3000XL. Using third party ups software ? I wouldn't trust it.

    If you download the latest software you should be fine, any problems try the UPS on the serial port. 8)

    Sparks right, didn't even notice that you mentioned usb. Always serial, + network management card.
