Enter N (you must uppercase) to indicate there is a single UPS servicing
the entire VCX system.
-- upsipaddr <IP Address of the UPS>
Enter the IP address of the UPS. Use dotted decimal notation but do
not enter leading zeros. For example, enter 10.230.63.3, not
010.230.063.003.
-- community <community string of the UPS>
Enter the SNMP community string configured on the UPS to enable
communication between the master VCX server and the UPS. Typically,
the community string is private to allow Read or Write access
(however, 3Com Corporation strongly recommends that you change
the default community string).
-- bcharge <UPS battery threshold charge>
Enter UPS battery threshold charge allowed before starting a
shutdown of the VCX system. The threshold charge is expressed as a
percentage of remaining battery power. The default is 25%. The
range from 25% to 75%.
The following example shows the syntax required to initially configure a
master VCX server:
vcx-ups-setup --master Y --monitormultipleups N
--upsipaddr 10.230.63.3 community private --bcharge 33
When this command is executed:
UPS monitoring is enabled on the current VCX server.
■
The server is designated the master.
■
The VCX system will be serviced by a single UPS.
■
The IP address of the UPS is 10.230.63.3.
■
The community string the UPS will use to communicate with the
■
master VCX server is private.
The low battery threshold charge is 33%.
■
After the initial master VCX server configuration, you can change a
parameter value by reentering the
following example, the low battery threshold charge is changed to 50%:
vcx-ups-setup --master Y --monitormultipleups N
--upsipaddr 10.230.63.3 community private --bcharge 50
