APC Network Management Cards & PowerChute Network Shutdown Config

[m_m]

Hi All,

 

Hoping someone can help here. We recently installed two APC UPS units, both equipped with network management cards. We then installed PowerChute network shutdown on our 2 Windows hosts and configured it to shut down the hosts when the runtime gets to 30 minutes:

The UPS are in a redundant config:

However, when testing, the hosts did not shut down when the UPS reached 30 minutes remaining; they stayed on. PowerChute detected that the mains were lost, but then did nothing when the UPS got to 30 minutes remaining.

 

There seems to be a lot of conflicting settings between the NMC & PCNS. Such as this section in the NMC.


Has anyone managed to configure NCM & PCNS?
