Lines: 19 Has anyone had any experience(s) with Uninterruptible Power Supplies on machines running SCO System V Unix? Specifically, what I'd like to know is: 1) Are there any species of U.P.S. that should be sought after/avoided? 2) How do I get the U.P.S. to tell the machine that it is running on "borrowed time" and to do a shutdown? If this is too obvious just mail me, but if the answers are truly enlightening :-) post them. -- Dennis Cook University of Technology, Sydney -- :-D (dennis@ultima.socs.uts.edu.au)
