The main characteristics of
WAVEMON Software
are:
Automatic unattended master/slave shutdown in heterogeneous networks
On-screen autonomy time / battery time countdown
On-screen server log off and shutdown procedure
Extensive logging of all UPS activity and power quality data, with timestamp
Scheduled UPS economy mode, service mode, other systems status
Graphical user interface for Windows compatible platforms
Automatic unattended local shutdown
Special software modules to close and save open MS-Office documents.
Compatible for all optional modules like UPSDIALER, SNMP adapters, Temperature sensors, etc.
The UPS-Management Software is a client-/server-application for networks and local workstations. Basically
WAVEMON-Software
consists of two parts: the server-module of the UPS-Management Software is
UPSServ
,
which communicates via RS-232 cable with the UPS. Working as a background process the UPSServ collects
messages, received from the UPS. The UPSServ interprets received messages and makes them available to
the client-module
UPSCli
and to any SNMP-based management station.
When UPSServ detects voltage variations or a power failure it can execute various so called system „event
routines“, which for example may shutdown the server or send warning to connected users. These system
event routines which are a part of the UPS-Management Software can be adjusted to your demands.
The UPS management software includes with every serial number the licence for using the UPS service on
one server with one UPS and an unlimited numbers of connected WINDOWS workstations. When operating
with two or more servers a licence for every additional server is required. It doesn’t matter if the UPS service
runs at that location or if the server is halted by a UPS service via remote command. The same regulations are
applicable to the use of remote send/receive modules RCCMD and multiserver shutdown under NT, UNIX and
other operating systems. The service programs are generally delivered as a single-licence. To use a single CD
ROM to shutdown multiple servers you have to purchase additional CD license keys.
Parallel/redundant UPS systems are also manageable by the software.
The main principle is: let introduce a shutdown of a Server only when strictly necessary. A correct Parallel
Handling has therefore to manage a parallel system as a whole and always considering redundancy. Following
statements apply:
