Introduction

Overview

As part of its NRGence line, ATEN has developed a new generation of green energy power distribution units (eco PDUs) to effectively increase the efficiency of data center power usage. The NRGence PE7216r / PE7234r /

PE8216r / PE8324r / PE9216r / PE9324r eco PDUs are intelligent PDUs that contain 16 or 24 AC outlets and are available in various IEC or NEMA socket configurations. Models in the advanced PE9 range feature a dedicated 8-outlet bank for critical load devices, as well as NRGence’s proactive overload protection, which automatically powers off the last outlet that caused the current overload.

NRGence eco PDUs provide secure, centralized, intelligent, power management (power on, off, cycle) of data center IT equipment (servers, storage systems, KVM switches, network devices, serial data devices, etc.), as well as the ability to monitor the center's health environment via sensors*. The

basic characteristics of each model are shown in the table on page 3.

NRGence eco PDUs offer remote power control combined with real-time power measurement – allowing you to control and monitor the power status of devices attached to the PDUs, either at the PDU device, bank, or outlet level, depending on the model, from practically any location via a TCP/IP connection*.

The power status of each outlet can be set individually, allowing users to switch each device On/Off. The eco PDU also offers comprehensive power analysis reports which can separate departments and locations, providing precise measurements of current, voltage, power and watt-hour in a real-time display.

Installation and operation is fast and easy: plugging cables into their appropriate ports and user-friendly browser-based configuration and management is all that is entailed. Since the eco PDU firmware is upgradeable over the Net, you can stay current with the latest functionality improvements simply by downloading updates from our website as they become available.

NRGence eco PDU supports any 3rd party V1, V2, V3 SNMP Manager

Software and NRGence eco Sensors (eco PDU Manager Software). eco

Sensors provides you with an easy method for managing multiple devices, offering an intuitive and user-friendly Graphical User Interface that allows you

1

eco PDU PE Series User Manual to configure a PDU device and monitor power status of the equipment connected to it.

With its advanced security features and ease of operation, the eco PDU is the most convenient, most reliable, and most cost effective way to remotely manage power access for multiple computer installations and allocate power resources in the most efficient way possible.

Note: 1. Sensors are optional accessories. A sensor-enabled installation is required to generate a more complete energy-efficient data and chart.

Higher sensor installation density is helpful to generate more accurate

data. See Optional Accessories, page 8, for further information.

2. eco PDUs are primarily designed for access via Intranet; extra network security protection is suggested for Internet access usage.

3. Not all models support all features. See PE7216r / PE7234r /

PE8216r / PE8324r / PE9216r / PE9324r Comparison Chart, page 3,

and Specifications, page 96, for full details.

Lok-U-Plug cable holders to secure them.

Note: See Securing the Cables, page 20, for details.

3. Plug the cable that connects the eco PDU to the LAN into the eco PDU's

LAN port.

4. (Optional) If you are using sensors in your eco PDU installation, connect them to the sensor ports on the unit’s front panel.

Note: Sensors are optional. Please see Optional Accessories, page 8, and

the installation diagrams later in this chapter for further information.

5. (Optional) To connect a modem, use Cat 5e cable to connect the unit’s

Modem port to the SA0142 (DCE) adapter supplied with the package.

Connect the adapter’s serial connector to the modem’s DB-9 port.

6. (Optional) To connect a digital output device, wire it to this two-pin terminal.

7. Depending on your model, connect the eco PDU's built-in power cord to an AC power source, or use the power cord provided to connect the eco

PDU’s power socket to an AC power source.

Chapter 6. Outlet Access

General

When the Configuration page opens, the station’s General page is selected.

This page allows you to set up a power management configuration for the device as a whole. The meanings of the field headings are given in the following table:

Heading

Device Name

Load Alarm

Meaning

To make things more convenient on a multi-station installation, each station can be given a distinctive name.

To name a station key in the name of your choice - up to

15 letters and numbers.

A checkmark in the check box disables an alarm from being triggered when the device’s current load falls outside of its specified range.

Environment Alarm A checkmark in the check box disables an alarm from being triggered when the device’s environment sensor readings fall outside the fluctuation threshold settings.

See below.

Device Threshold Settings These fields are used to set the maximum, minimum, and fluctuation threshold settings. If a range falls below the minimum setting, or exceeds the maximum setting an alarm is triggered.

In order to keep alarms from being constantly triggered due to slight fluctuations at the threshold points, you can set a fluctuation range that must be exceeded when a threshold is crossed in order for the alarm to be triggered.

Temperature Unit

Bank Threshold Settings

Click a radio button to choose the temperature unit for the temperature sensor.

These fields are used to set the maximum, minimum, and fluctuation threshold settings for the Banks. These operate the same way as the Device Threshold Settings, above.

Outlet Level Configuration

The configuration settings for many eco PDU models can be specified on an outlet by outlet basis. When an outlet is selected in the Configuration page

Sidebar, the main panel displays a page with two tabs: Configuration, and

Schedule, as described in the sections that follow.

Configuration

The Configuration tab page, similar to the one below, is the default that appears in the main panel.

This page lets you set up the power management configuration for the selected outlet. The meanings of the field headings are given in the table on the following two pages:

Heading

Outlet Name

Alarm

Confirmation

Required

Meaning

Each outlet can be given a distinctive name. The maximum number of characters is 15.

A checkmark in the check box disables an alarm from being triggered when the outlet’s readings fall outside the fluctuation threshold settings.

If this option is enabled (there is a check in the checkbox), a dialog box comes up asking you to confirm a power operation before it is performed. If it is disabled (there is no check in the checkbox), the operation is performed without confirmation.

Heading Meaning

Power On Delay Sets the amount of time the eco PDU waits after the Power Button is clicked, before it turns on the computer attached to the corresponding outlet.

Note: The default delay time is 0 seconds; the maximum is 999 seconds. When a series of outlets are scheduled to be powered up, they turn on in sequence with a default delay of 10 milliseconds between each outlet.

Power Off Delay Sets the amount of time the eco PDU waits after the Power Button is clicked, before it turns off the computer attached to the corresponding outlet.

For the System after AC Back option (see below), after the delay time expires, the eco PDU waits another fifteen seconds, then shuts the computer down.

The default delay time is 15 seconds. The maximum delay time is

999 seconds.

Shutdown Method There are three choices for the Shutdown method. Drop down the list to select a choice. The meaning of each choice is described, below:

Wake on LAN: This is a Safe Shutdown and Restart option. If this is selected, when an Outlet is turned Off, the eco PDU first sends a message to the computer telling it to prepare for a shutdown; it then waits for the amount time set in the Power Off Delay field to give the OS time to close down before the computer is powered down to standby mode.

Likewise, when the Outlet is turned On, the eco PDU waits for the amount time set in the Power On Delay field, then sends an

Ethernet message to the computer connected to the Outlet telling the computer to turn itself On.

Note: For Safe Shutdown and Restart, the computer must be running

Windows (Windows 98 or higher), and the Safe Shutdown program

(available by download from our website), must be installed and running on the computer.

System after AC Back: This is a Safe Shutdown and Restart option. If this is selected, when an Outlet is turned Off, the eco

PDU first sends a message to the computer telling it to prepare for a shutdown; it then waits for the amount time set in the Power

Off Delay field to give the OS time to close down before the computer is powered down.

When the Outlet is turned On, the eco PDU waits for the amount time set in the Power On Delay field, then sends power to the server. When the server receives the power, it turns itself on.

Note: For Safe Shutdown and Reboot, the computer must be running

Windows (Windows 98 or higher), and the Safe Shutdown program

(available by download from our website), must be installed and running on the computer.

Kill the Power: If this option is selected, the eco PDU waits for the amount time set in the Power Off Delay field, and then turns the

Outlet's power Off. Turning the power off performs a cold (nonsafe) shutdown.

MAC Address In order to use either of the Safe Shutdown and Restart methods the MAC address of the computer connected to the outlet must be filled in here.

Chapter 8. Device Management

Private Certificate

When logging in over a secure (SSL) connection, a signed certificate is used to verify that the user is logging in to the intended site. For enhanced security, the

Private Certificate section allows you to use your own private encryption key and signed certificate, rather than the default ATEN certificate.

There are two methods for establishing your private certificate: generating a self-signed certificate; and importing a third-party certificate authority (CA) signed certificate.

Generating a Self-Signed Certificate

If you wish to create your own self-signed certificate, a free utility – openssl.exe – is available for download over the web.

Obtaining a CA Signed SSL Server Certificate

For the greatest security, we recommend using a third party certificate authority (CA) signed certificate. To obtain a third party signed certificate, go to a CA (Certificate Authority) website to apply for an SSL certificate. After the CA sends you the certificate and private encryption key, save them to a convenient location on your computer.

Importing the Private Certificate

To import the private certificate, do the following:

1. Click Browse to the right of Private Key; browse to where your private encryption key file is located; and select it.

2. Click Browse to the right of Certificate; browse to where your certificate file is located; and select it.

3. Click Upload to complete the procedure.

Note: 1. Clicking Restore Default returns the device to using the default

ATEN certificate.

2. Both the private encryption key and the signed certificate must be imported at the same time.

When you have finished making your settings on this page, click Save.

IP Address Determination

If you are an administrator logging in for the first time, you need to access the eco PDU in order to give it an IP address that users can connect to. There are two methods to choose from. In each case, your client computer must be on the same network segment as the eco PDU. After you have connected and logged in you can give the device its fixed network address. (See Device Management, page 49.)

Method 1:

For computers running Windows, an IP address can be determined and/or assigned with the IP Installer utility. The utility can be obtained from the

Download area of our web site or from the software CD. Look under Driver/

SW, and the model of your device. After downloading the utility to your computer, do the following:

1. Unzip the contents of IPInstaller.zip to a directory on your hard drive.

2. Go to the directory that you unzipped the IPInstaller program to and run

IPInstaller.exe. A dialog box similar to the one below appears:

3. Select the device in the Device List.

Note: 1. If the list is empty, or your device doesn't appear, click

Enumerate to refresh the Device List.

2. If there is more than one device in the list, use the MAC address to pick the one you want. The eco PDU's MAC address is located on its bottom panel.

4. Select either Obtain an IP address automatically (DHCP), or Specify an

IP address. If you chose the latter, fill the IP Address, Subnet Mask, and

Gateway fields with the information appropriate to your network.

5. Click Set IP.

6. After the IP address shows up in the Device List, click Exit to end the program.

Method 2:

1. Set your computer's IP address to 192.168.0.XXX

Where XXX represents any number or numbers except 60. (192.168.0.60) is the default address of the eco PDU.)

2. Specify the device’s default IP address (192.168.0.60) in your browser, and you will be able to connect.

3. Assign a fixed IP address for the device (see IPv4 Configuration, page 51), that is suitable for the network segment that it resides on.

4. After you log out, reset your computer's IP address to its original value.

5. Once you have logged in, go to Network Settings to set up the permanent

IP environment (see IPv4 Configuration, page 51).

Method 3:

NRGence eco Sensors allows you to determine/assign an IP address in order to configure a PDU device and monitor power status of the equipment connected to it. NRGence eco Sensors can be obtained from the Download area of the

ATEN web site.
