Smart Load Shedding

Server Technology's innovative Load Shedding

Server Technology is the first to offer data center managers the ability to automatically manage Rack PDU power outlets based on key operating parameters. These key parameters include temperature, in-feed load and UPS power status. Each outlet can be controlled by one or more of these parameters. Should the temperature or load current exceed defined thresholds or the UPS lose power and go onto battery all or a portion of the load can be automatically shed to ensure longer operational life of your critical devices. If one or more servers are being shed a controlled shut down can be accomplished via a remote shutdown agent. Along with automatic shedding an “auto-recovery" function ensures that all devices are brought back to a defined state when conditions return to normal. The UPS devices that are supported include: APC®, MGE, Generic (RFC 1628 Support), Minuteman, Eaton®/Powerware, Liebert, Tripp Lite, Hewlett Packard®, Mitsubishi®, and Toshiba.
