UPS Monitoring on the i5, iSeries, and AS/400
1. Set the QUPSDLYTIM system value for the UPS monitoring
feature.
2. UPS monitoring is a standard feature of the iSeries (AS/400)
operating system. QUPSDLYTIM is a timer that tells the system
how long to run on UPS power before shutting down. Each system
is initially assigned a default value for QUPSDLYTIM. A complete
description of QUPSDLYTIM is provided on the AS/400 Information
Center Internet Site at:
http://publib.boulder.ibm.com/pubs/html/as400/ic2924/info/index.htm
Select System Administration and Maintenance.
CAUTION
The *NOMAX value tells the AS/400 to use customized shutdown software, and if none is
available it will begin shutdown immediately when utility power fails. Do not set
QUPSDLYTIM to “*NOMAX” unless you understand the implications of the “*NOMAX”
function as described at the AS/400 Information Center Internet Site.
