Sample Services Configuration Script — Secondary Server (continued)
Do you want this server to be the master ? [N] :
When one UPS powers several VCX servers, one of the VCX servers is
designated as the Master. Its job is to monitor the remaining battery
power of the UPS. If this VCX system is being configured as the Master
server for the UPS configuration or if this VCX system contains only one
VCS server, enter Y. Otherwise, press the Enter or Return key to accept
the default answer (N).
UPS Monitoring requires a network-enabled UPS. Enter the IP address
assigned to the UPS's management card or Ethernet interface. Note: The UPS
must already be configured with this address.
UPS IP address :
Enter the IP address of the UPS's management card or Ethernet interface.
The SNMP 'write' community string configured in the UPS is required. (For
security reasons, it is recommended that the default value provided by the
UPS be changed.)

The VCX system polls the UPS at regular intervals to get status
information. A shorter interval makes the system more responsive to UPS
status changes, but consumes more network bandwidth. The default value
should work for most systems.
