It is not supported to map UPS outlet groups when PowerChute is configured with Nutanix. |
If your UPS supports outlet groups you must specify which one the server is being powered by so that PowerChute can monitor it for shutdown events and also issue turn-off commands to that outlet group.
If PowerChute is re-configured to use a different UPS in an Advanced UPS Configuration, you may not be able to map Hosts to the new UPS on the Host Protection page. This only occurs if the new UPS has the same UPS Setup name but a different outlet group configuration to the original one. To reconfigure a PowerChute installation with a new UPS under the same Setup name, use a different UPS Setup name when re-running the Setup Wizard to change the UPS.

If your VMware hosts servers servers servers are being powered by a mix of outlet-aware UPS’s (e.g. SMX/ SMT) and non-outlet-aware UPS’s (e.g. SU/ SUA) in a Redundant UPS Configuration, PowerChute only provides the option to turn off the UPS and not the outlet group.
Your VMware hosts and their virtual machines servers servers servers are still protected if there is a UPS critical event or if the outlet group is commanded to shut down e.g. via the NMC User Interface.
This also applies for the Advanced UPS configuration if there are hosts associated with more than one outlet group on the same NMC.
PowerChute Setup - VMware hosts associated with more than one outlet group on the same NMC
Host Protection - VMware hosts associated with more than one outlet group on the same NMC
This also applies for the Advanced UPS configuration if there are hosts (managed by SCVMM) associated with more than one outlet group on the same NMC.
