HP UPS Power Protection Agent overview
The HP UPS Power Protection Agent runs on a local or network server and allows the management
module to gracefully shut down the operating system of that server and optionally run a script during
power failure. Install the agent on any machine that is powered by the UPS and any machine that the
management module uses to initiate a command.
NOTE: If you are an existing HP Power Manager user, you must uninstall the HPPM Remote
Agent before installing the UPS Power Protection Agent.
If the UPS Power Protection Agent is not applicable for your load devices, you can use a third-party
SNMP manager to monitor the power protection. For more information, see "SNMP monitoring (on page
111 )."
