But if I understand you right, you have your own UPS for each mashine.
Myself I have one larger UPS for all, so I cannot shutdown the UPS.
Also my monitoring system is at the same location than the server. So if
there is any hardware that can "push the reset button" forced by the
monitoring system (maybe via RS 232) this would help. Do you know such
products?
