Chapter 5: PDU Linking
Viewing Link Unit Information
When a link unit is added to the chain, the master unit view (through the GUI)
allows full access to the operational data of the link unit. For example, using
the navigation tabs of the GUI, link unit data is displayed in several pages: the
Dashboard, PDUs, Inlets, Outlets, Outlet Groups, Peripherals, and Feature
Ports.
Dashboard
The Dashboard shows inlets, OCPs, alerted sensors, and inlet history for the
entire linked chain.
In this example, data for the single inlet of the master "My PDU (1)" Inlet I1,
and the inlet of the link unit "My PDU (2)" Inlet I1, are displayed together. The
OCPs for the units are also available together on the Dashboard page.
Peripheral sensors are not shown on the dashboard by default. Only sensors
(both PDU or peripheral) in warned or critical state are displayed in the Alerted
Sensors section.
