I have setup my 2 Eaton ups as the power source, have IPM integrated into VCentre but cannot for the life of me work out how to schedule shutting down selected groups of VMs at different stages of battery remaining levels.
Because I am running an HP VSA on each physical host of my cluster I need to ensure that these VMs are shutdown after all other VMs.
I have read the manuals several times but would be grateful for any pointers.
I have looked at using the Load Shedding utility but have not managed to get that to shut any VMs down in my test environment despite setting 3 different priorities with TimeToShutdown at 2mins, 3mins and 4mins respectively.
Unfortunately I have to go live with 4 of the Eaton devices in under 7 days time on our production network after we have suffered some major power outages and what seemed to be the most comprehensive solution is now causing me the most grief!
