Sounds like HA module was a SPOF. =)

Better to have diverse UPSes, each feeding one power supply of the
equipment.

Last year our Eaton UPS let the magic smoke out of an HA module
that was supposed to make sure one or the other redundant UPSen
was carrying the load. Datacenter went dark. Eaton's 24x7 support
didn't stock the (vaporized) cable assembly. Their tech rigged
something up that's still in place. Good times.
