COMMENT: Thu Dec 17 20:52:56 GMT 1998 I've been reading about the UPS Monitoring software and one of the requirements is a dedicated serial port on the Sparcstation that we'll use to monitor the UPS and control the shutdown of the other machines. None of our 3 Sparcstations has a free serial port although one of the Nahenahe ports currently goes to the backup modem and one of Kii ports goes to the printer. Those may be available for changes if needed. I talked to David about the software and connections and he said the software should have minimal impact on the performance of the machines and therefore could be installed and run from one of the three Sparcstations. He also mentioned that there is a plan in progress to get us a dedicated Network Sparcstation very soon and that would be an ideal place to install more monitoring software, and it should have a free serial port. That sounds good to me, especially if it has a CDROM drive so I can more easily install the UPS software. I called Peter to ask him about that but he wasn't at his office so I left a message. He mentioned earlier that he was busy, it could be that he isn't in the office today. I'll send him some email about it. There is no rush since we have the equipment already connected to the UPS. So monitoring software installation and configuration is temporarily on hold.
