    摘要: A system and method for automatically determining a physical location of one or more units in a rack, including: using one or more physical cables between rack units; cascading a first signal through the one or more units located in the rack, the first signal being encoded with a unit number and a physical parameter; and creating a rack ID by utilizing hardware parameters, the hardware parameters being determined by: detecting a second signal that exists from a bottom unit, the bottom unit located at the bottom of the rack; and using a third signal to send data between the one or more units in the rack by manipulating void spaces within the rack, the third signal being either cabled or an optical signal.

    摘要: Methods and apparatuses that automatically determine the capabilities of UPS devices. Systems automatically determine whether a UPS device is capable of protecting system resources by comparing the UPS capabilities against system requirements. Such systems can use that determination to approximate how long a UPS device can reliably supply power. Systems having multiple UPS devices can be implemented such that the connections of the UPS devices to system resources are automatically determined, the load on each UPS device can be found, the capabilities of the UPS devices can be obtained, a comparison between UPS load and UPS capabilities can made, and a warning of problems can be sent. Using UPS capability and load information a system can provide for a controlled shutdown of system resources.
