I've seen the suggested code IBM published for a Power Outage Handling program when the message queue defined by the QUPSMSGQ system value is allocated.
But what can be done when a UPS is supporting a server on which multiple partitions are defined?
What is the connection actually made between the RS232 cable from the UPS and the IBM i? It must be simply an IBM i port monitored by some process in a single partition, right?
In this case, how would all the partitions be notified so they can be shut down? And, if they could all be shut down, how would the server itself be powered off, since PWRDWNSYS doesn't actually power the server down (we do it through the HMC, which also manages another server).

Is there an IBM document describing this circumstance?
