It works beautifully. :-) Communication between server and UPS works with serial and USB. I |

purchased the additional SNMP card with mine and it works also. |

To have a stable system, you will need to: |
| 12 |
1) alter your bios so that your server will automatically start up on power restore. |
| 13 |
2) Adjust apcupsd.conf to match your server(s) power down requirements. |
| 14 |
3) Follow the apcupsd power failure test procedure to insure your server issues a UPS power down |
| 15 |
w/delay command during server halt to protect against intermittent power failures. |
