Testing Responses to Events
Liebert MultiLink’s testing feature allows you to simulate a UPS-related event and verify the
responses configured for that event. Care should be taken in preparing for any testing because, unless
it is canceled, the simulation will complete all configured actions on the host computer, including
shutting down the operating system. In this simulation, however, targeted client computers will not
receive notifications.
To perform a test:
To perform a test:
• Ensure that you have saved all changes to the event configuration. If you have not saved changes
to the event configuration, the test will fail. To save changes, click on the MultiLink menu and
then on Save Event Configuration.
• Click on the Event Configuration tab.
• Right-click on the name of the event you want to test.
• In the pop-up menu that appears, click on Test Event.
• Right-click on the name of the event you want to test.
• In the pop-up menu that appears, click on Test Event.
For example, if you are testing the UPS Operating On Battery event, the following occurs:
• If the Notify action is enabled, the configured notification occurs on the host computer.
• If the Shutdown action is enabled, a shutdown timer begins.
• If this timer expires before you cancel the test, the operating system is shut down.
• If the Shutdown action is enabled, a shutdown timer begins.
• If this timer expires before you cancel the test, the operating system is shut down.
