Re: when a ups doesn't help

Since we are adding up a best practices list - i wish IBM would
provide a way to lock the power cord to the back of the machine (some
clamp or something so that walking over the power cord cannot pull it
from back of the unit.
Small shops do not have raised floors or racks, and even then, repositioning
a unit can cause the power cord to dislodge.

I would NEVER plug anything that critical into a power strip. I have seen
way to many flakey power strips. iSeries straight into the UPS on a
dedicated circuit here.
