"The Symettra sends a shutdown signal" should really say "The Symettra sends
status to the windows servers and they are set to react to this status".

I would agree on the cable issue. I have a box with "APC Cables don't touch
upon pain of death" written on it. That said our Symettra LX is a tank.
Ours has a management card and it works with "APC Network Shutdown software"
which is free on our windows servers. The Symettra sends a shutdown sig
I feel that there is more parity in quality these days across brands. That
makes it easier to choose equipment with the right connectors.

FWIW - I had opportunity to make a claim against APC's equipment
protection warranty a few years ago. After supplying details they
honored the warranty and paid off the claim without a hassle.
I think APC's reputation is well-deserved.

The APC Smart-UPS lines has an EEPROM setting that controls how long
the UPS waits. Y

Do your HP servers have any sort of remote access cards in
Im not sure how to 'turn it on' other than set it in the bios to reboot upon
power loss or last state. APC has an option to cut power with their web mgmt
card that I saw long ago allowing the remote user to 'cycle' power using the
webcard on the apc.

Do your HP servers have any sort of remote access cards in them similar
to DRAC cards in Dells?
It's a little web server embedded in a management chip that stays
powered on in the server as long the power supplies have power. It
allows you to remote boot, reboot, kvm, etc...
