Since other customers may be experiencing the same issues, this brief article will present those questions. HP technical staff has provided the answers. FAQs Question #1 Q. Is there a version of the HP UPS Management Agent available for customers running operating system ESX 3.0.x that will provide an automatic shutdown solution when the uninterruptible power supply (UPS) runs out of power? We found compatibility information online for VMware 2.5.x, but not specifically for 3.0.x. A. Technically, the current HPMM Power Protection Agent should work with VMware 2.5.x or ESX 3.0.x. The only difference is that for ESX 3.0.x there is a shutdown option. If this option is not set correctly, when the server is rebooted, the user will receive an error message at the login screen because the server was not shut down gracefully. Question #2 Q. From where can the agent be downloaded, either internally or externally? We can find Windows, HP-UX, and Linux versions online externally, but none for ESX (even version 2.5.4). A. VMware is based on Linux; the Linux agent is available for download at http://h18004.www1.hp.com/products/servers/proliantstorage/power-protection/software/module/ups/dl.html
