on point 25 there .. I agree that APC service is excellent. I have five units here that are 1200 VA each and then a 1500VA unit and a few small guys kicking around. That keeps five or six computers going as well as some other devices. The real trick is to do an orderly shut down because most of these newer guys want USB connections and you just can't plug that into the back of some of my boxes here. the ultimate is the 48V big monster batteries I have in my server room. Two man lift only at about 90Kg each I think. Feels like a ton to lift. But the run time is just amazing at well over 600 minutes. oh well ... I see you have your fair share of APC events in your life also. dc _______________________________________________ opensolaris-discuss mailing list opensolaris-discuss@opensolaris.org
