Re: UPS QUESTION

[KirkG@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx]

The system as 2 sysvals  QUPSDLYTIM and  QUPSMSGQ. The ups cable is simply 
a cable that says open or closed (NO ac to UPS or YES ac to UPS). Its up 
to you to set the   QUPSDLYTIM sysval correctly and if you want handle the 
system yourself then you need to monitor the msgq in QUPSMSGQ with your 
own pgm. The system has no idea that the UPS is about to die except 
through the time set in QUPSDLYTIM

        Subject:        UPS QUESTION

friday the power line to our ups was unplugged. Our help desk say they saw 
no 
messages in qsysopr about. We found out when the as400 started powering 
itself down. What a scramble a the end of friday. When ipled the qsysopr 
msg 
q was cleared out. 

I looked in the log the only entry i saw was 

System utility power failed at 000512151401. 15:14:00

then these

 Machine ineligible condition threshold reached.
 Ineligible condition threshold reached for pool 02. 15:34:00

then the end

shouldn't there be a entry about ups time out or something?

thank you
jeff g.
