Use the Utility Meter Site Preparation Form below to plan the configuration of the Utility Meter PPU installation.
Items of interest are:
• You can have up to 10 e-mail addresses for the Contact E-mail for Missing Data entries.
HP recommends using an e-mail alias in your corporate e-mail system as the contact address for your
Utility Meter. Enter the name of the alias (complete with domain name) as one of the e-mail addresses.
Use an e-mail alias with a small number of contacts.
• Ensure that the network's DNS server(s) tables contain the IP address and hostname of the Utility Meter.
• If the data transport method is e-mail, add the Utility Meter to the access list of the selected mail server.
This form below is for Utility Meter software version 8.13 on HP-UX. It needs to be completed by the customer
and returned to their local HP contact before the PPU installation starts. Please use one form per Utility Meter.
