Hi,
We have a dual-processor opteron machine that has now gone through 2 antec
500W powersupplies. This machine is attached to a UPS, and is on most of the
time. Each powersupply has lasted about 1.5 years, and has died abruptly.
Any ideas on what could be causing this?
Cheers,
Dylan

Poor quality control by Antec is definitely a strong possibility. I had
an Antec Truepower Trio 650 that died suddenly after about a year and
discovered a number of other people who suffered the same fate. The
Trios have a 5-year warranty, but it took several weeks to get the
replacement. Si

You might check power consumption of this server. Depending on details, a 500W
supply might not be enough. Newegg has a handy "Kill-A-Watt" power meter for
about $20, and also customer reviews of power supplies that they sell.

I know you said you wanted automated and no GIMP answers but GIMP does
have autoscript capability. Ghost language iirc? There are separate forums
for asking for scripts.

You might also want to check the power supply specs to see how much
current each rail can supply. Then ensure that the devices on each rail
consume less than the nominal current of the rail.

I've been fairly content with the readout my backup battery unit gives
via apcupsd (Assuming you connected the communication port and installed
the tool). But I've never compared it against a "Kill-A-Watt" meter.
Could be interesting.
Enjoy,
