LEGRAND Server Technology PRO3X User Manual page 271

PRO3X can monitor any IT device, such as database servers, remote authentication servers, power
distribution units (PDUs), and so on. It supports monitoring a maximum of 64 IT devices.
To perform this feature, you need the Administrator Privileges.
The default ping settings may not be suitable for monitoring devices that require high connection
reliability so it is strongly recommended that you should adjust the ping settings for optimal results.
In addition, if your PRO3X is outlet switching capable, you can even connect a monitored IT device to
one or multiple outlets of PRO3X and then have PRO3X perform the following two actions as needed, in
addition to monitoring its status:
• •
First shut down the monitored IT device.
• •
After the IT device is shut down, power off the outlet(s) where that device is connected.
Important: Not every IT device can be shut down by PRO3X so it is suggested to
verify whether the device can be shut down using a shutdown command. For
example, PRO3X cannot shut down a PDU with a shutdown command.
