Overview Multi-Server UPS Card Without a Multi-Server UPS Card, the UPS can communicate with two host computers. The Multi-Server UPS Card enables one UPS to communicate with up to four host computers by using all three ports on the option card and the open port on the UPS. NOTE: Port 1 connects the card to the UPS through the pigtail cable on the card. Figure 1-4: Multi-Server UPS Card Power management software enables a single UPS with one Multi-Server UPS Card to protect up to four servers. If two Multi-Server UPS Cards are installed, five servers can be separately protected by connecting the servers to different UPS R6000 load segments. If a network includes five servers running three different operating systems, two Multi-Server Cards communicate directly between the UPS and all five servers. Each server and its associated devices can be powered from a different UPS load segment. HP Uninterruptible Power System R6000 Models User Guide 1-7
