Attached Agents Screen
Information on the Attached Agents screen summarizes the agents attached to each load
segment of the UPS. Only agents included in the Managed Agent table on the Agent
Management screen are available on the Attached Agents screen.
NOTE: One agent can be attached to more than one UPS or UPS load segment. For example, a
server that has two power supplies can have each power supply connected to two different UPSs or
UPS load segments. To configure redundant support, attach the agent for that server to two UPSs.
IMPORTANT: When planning a redundant configuration, consider that in normal operating
conditions, servers with multiple power supplies equally distribute the power load across each power
feed. A server with two power supplies applies 50% of the load to each power feed. In the event that
one power feed fails, the second power feed must be able to handle 100% of the load. Ensure that each
UPS in the redundant configuration can support the entire load in the event of a power failure.
Redundant UPS configurations should be tested thoroughly to ensure the load handling capabilities and
power fail settings of each UPS prior to an actual power failure event.
To add or edit an attached agent:
1. Click Attach Managed Agent at the bottom of the screen, or click the hyperlink for an
existing agent in the Name column. The Add/Edit Attachment box appears.
2. Select the load segment to which the agent is attached in the Load Segment dropdown
box.
3. Select the server name in the Managed Agents dropdown box.
