Primary PowerChute Business Edition server may not shutdown gracefully when Interface Expander 2 card is configured with Timer Mode shutdown
Issue:
The primary server may not shut down gracefully after the “PowerChute Agent outlet turning off” event is logged in the primary server in a Simple Signaling configuration with an Interface Expander 2 (IE2) card using Timer Mode. This event is logged when the simple clients begin to shut down.
Product:
PowerChute Business Edition v9.5 and above
PowerChute Serial Shutdown
Environment:
Simple Signaling with Interface Expander 2 card (AP9624) and Type A UPS devices
Solution:
After the IE2 card issues a shutdown command to simple clients, a turn-off command is also given to turn off the UPS. To ensure graceful shutdown, the delay of this turn-off command must be equal to the values set for “Time for operating systems to shut down” and “At runtime limit” in the Shutdown Settings screen of the primary server. After this combined time elapses, the primary server starts to shut down along with the UPS.
To ensure the primary server gracefully shuts down, follow the steps below:
- Provide a high delay in the “Time for operating systems to shut down” field in the Shutdown Settings screen in the primary server. Setting a high value here will give the operating system more time to shut down.
- Connect all servers, including the simple clients, to a PowerChute outlet group. Doing this will ensure the Outlet Sequence screen turns off the servers in the primary server.
- Configure command files in the Event Configuration screen instead of Shutdown Settings. Command files configured in the Shutdown Settings screen only run when the “Shutdown Process Started” event is logged in the primary server. However, this event is not logged in this configuration, so the command file will not run.
NOTE: This issue is specific to Type A UPS devices only. Visit PowerChute support with USB or Serial communication-supported UPS Models to learn more about UPS model types.
