After configuring all of the action parameters, and applying the settings, the Verify button can be used to verify

whether the user’s configurations are correct. To test whether a notification is configured properly and a recipient can

receive the notification successfully, use the Test function on the Event Action/Notification Recipient page.

Each action has its own Activate option to specify whether to use the service to send a notification. If No is checked,

the Verify button and the corresponding Test function will be disabled. The column displayed in the recipient list will

be marked gray to indicate that action is disabled.

Shutdown

 Necessary shutdown time: This setting will set the amount of time which Agent and Client computers will take to

shut down. The host computer will initiate the shutdown before power is stopped from the PDU or UPS in order to

avoid a sudden blackout. This setting should be configured to allow for the normal shutdown time of the computer.

When Client connects to a PDU outlet, the shutdown time must be set properly to avoid the delay-off time of the

connected inability to support a complete shutdown. When a PDU performs a sequenced off/reboot action, each

outlet has a specified delay time (delay-off) before it is turned off. This delay time must be greater than the

Necessary shutdown time required by a Client computer. The Client will communicate with the PDU to verify

whether this delay time is sufficient. If the delay time is insufficient a warning message will display. The user can

expand it and configure the outlet delay-off of the PDU or configure it in the PDU web interface manually. The

warning message will be visible until these options are setup properly.

Note: This function must have write permission. See Security/Authentication for more details. If the Client is given

write permission on the PDU it can setup the PDU directly.

The Client will warn users there is insufficient time for a complete shutdown in the PDU.

 Shutdown type: This setting will specify the manner in which the Agent/Client computer is shutdown. The options

are Shutdown or Hibernation. The Hibernation option is only visible on operating systems and hardware that

support hibernation. When the Agent/Client shuts down the hosted computer using a Shutdown, any unnamed

files will be saved automatically in a folder named Auto Saved in the My Documents folder.

 Save opened file & log off: When a power event occurs, the computer will shut down in minutes. This setting is

used to determine whether to save open files on desktop and then log off before the computer is shutdown.

 Also turn off UPS: This setting is used for Agent to determine whether to turn off the UPS after the Agent and all

Client computers are shut down completely. If Yes is checked, the UPS will be turned off after the Agent computer

shutdown. The output power supplied to all equipment will also be turned off. If users wish that all equipment can

continue being supplying power by the UPS after the Agent computer shutdown, this setting should be checked

No.

 VM Host: In VMware ESX/ESXi or Citrix XenServer host, root permission is required and a host address must be

specified in order to initiate a shutdown.
