Types of User Accounts
The unit has various levels of access — Administrator, Device User, Read-Only
User, and Network-only User — and these are protected by user name and
password requirements.
•
A Super User/Administrator can use all of the menus in the UI and all of the
commands in the command line interface. Administrator user types can be
deleted. The default user name and password are both apc.
•
A Device User has read and write access to device-related screens.
Administrative functions like Session Management under the Configuration
> Security menu and Firewall under Logs are grayed out.
◦
•
•
The default user name is device, and the default password is apc.
A Read-only User has the following restricted access:
◦
Access through the Web UI and command line interface (CLI) only.
◦
Access to the same menus as a Device User above but without the
capability to change configurations, control devices, delete data, or use file
transfer options. Links to configuration options are visible but disabled.
(The Event and Data Logs display no button for this user to clear the log.)
◦
The default user name is readonly and the default password is apc.
A Network-only User can only log on using the Web user interface (UI) and
CLI (telnet not serial). A network-only user has read-write access to the
network-related menus only. There is no default name and password.
To set User Name and Password values for the top three account
types, see Local Users, page 23.

Introduction
Check Log LED
When yellow, this LED indicates a new critical alarm, warning alarm, or event has
occurred since the last time the event log was viewed from the display interface.
Warning Alarm LED
When yellow, this LED indicates that a warning alarm condition exists and may
require your attention to prevent it from deteriorating into a critical state. A new
alarm condition causes the display interface to beep every 30 seconds, if the
audible alarm is enabled. Press any function key to silence the audible alarm. If the
temperature returns to normal, the LED returns to normal.
Critical Alarm LED
When red, this LED indicates that a critical alarm condition exists and requires your
immediate attention. A new alarm condition causes the display interface to beep
every 30 seconds, if the audible alarm is enabled. Press any function key to silence
the audible alarm. The light continues to blink to show the critical status.
How to Recover from a Lost Password
You can use a local computer that connects to the display through the serial port to
access the command line interface.
1. Select a serial port on the local computer, and disable any service that uses
that port.
2. Connect the provided serial cable to the selected port on the computer and to
the configuration port on the display.
3. Run a terminal program (such as HyperTerminal®) and configure the selected
port for 9600 bps, 8 data bits, no parity, 1 stop bit, and no flow control.
4. Press Enter, repeatedly if necessary, to display the User Name prompt. If
you are unable to display the User Name prompt, verify the following:
•
The serial port is not in use by another application.
•
The terminal settings are correct as specified in step 3.
•
The correct cable is being used as specified in step 2.
5. Press the Reset button. The Status LED will flash alternately orange and
green. Press the Reset button a second time immediately while the LED is
flashing to reset the user name and password to their defaults temporarily.
6. Press Enter, repeatedly if necessary, to display the User Name prompt
again, then use the default, apc, for the user name and password. (If you take
longer than 30 seconds to log on after the User Name prompt is re-displayed,
you must repeat step 5 and log on again.)
7. At the command line interface, use the following commands to change the
Password setting, which is apc at this stage:
user –n <user name> –pw <user password>
For example, to change the Super User password to XYZ, type:
user –n apc –pw XYZ
8. Type quit or exit to log off, reconnect any serial cable you disconnected from
the computer, and restart any service you disabled on the unit.

Introduction
Watchdog Features
Overview
To detect internal problems and recover from unanticipated input, the display uses
internal, system-wide watchdog mechanisms. When it restarts to recover from an
internal problem, a System: Network Interface Restarted event is recorded in the
event log.
Network Interface Watchdog Mechanism
The display implements internal watchdog mechanisms to protect itself from
becoming inaccessible over the network. For example, if the display unit does not
receive any network traffic for 9.5 minutes (either direct traffic, such as SNMP, or
broadcast traffic, such as an Address Resolution Protocol [ARP] request), it
assumes that there is a problem with its network interface and restarts.
Resetting the Network Timer
To ensure that the display does not restart if the network is quiet for 9.5 minutes,
the display unit attempts to contact the default gateway every 4.5 minutes. If the
gateway is present, it responds to the display, and that response restarts the 9.5minute timer. If your application does not require or have a gateway, specify the IP
address of a computer that is running on the network and is on the same subnet.
The network traffic of that computer will restart the 9.5-minute timer frequently
enough to prevent the display from restarting.

Web User Interface
Web User Interface
Introduction
Overview
The Web user interface (UI) provides options to manage the unit and to view the
status of the unit.
See Web Access, page 32 for information on how to select, enable,
and disable the protocols that control access to the UI and to define
the Web-server ports for the protocols.
Supported Web browsers
You can use Microsoft® Internet Explorer® (IE) 7.x or higher (on Windows operating
systems only) or Mozilla® Firefox® 3.0.6 or higher (on all operating systems) to
access the unit through its UI. Other commonly available browsers might work but
have not been fully tested.
The unit cannot work with a proxy server. Before you can use a browser to access
the UI of the unit, you must do one of the following:
•
Configure the browser to disable the use of a proxy server for the unit.
•
Configure the proxy server so that it does not proxy the specific IP address of
the unit.
How to Log On
Overview
You can use the DNS name or the System IP address of the unit for the URL
address of the UI. Use your casesensitive user name and password to log on. If
you do not have a user name and password assigned, the default user name can
be used and differs by account type:
•
apc for Administrator
•
device for a Device User
•
readonly for a Read-Only User
The default password is apc for these three account types. There is no default for
a Network-only account type.
See also Types of User Accounts, page 9.
When HTTPS is enabled, the unit generates its own certificate. This certificate
negotiates encryption methods with your browser.

Setpoints
Path: Main > Configuration > Group > Setpoints
•
Cool Setpoint: The air temperature setpoint the cooling units work to achieve
and then maintain during operation. In a Spot cooling configuration, the
cooling unit will bring the Return Air Temperature to the Cool Setpoint. In an
InRow configuration, the cooling units will bring the Rack Inlet Air
Temperature to the Cool Setpoint. In a RACS configuration, the cooling units
will match the air flow of the loads by controlling the difference between the
supply and return air temperatures as specified by the fan speed setting. The
setpoint must be within 18.0 – 26 °C (64.4 – 78.8°F).
•
Cool Deadband: The air temperature must exceed the Cool Setpoint plus
the Cool Deadband before the cooling unit turns on the compressor.
•
Supply Air Setpoint: The setpoint must be within 15.0– 30.2°C (59.0–86.4°

Authentication
Specify how you want users to be authenticated at logon.
The following authentication and authorization functions of remote authentication
dial-in user service (RADIUS) are supported:
•
When a user accesses the unit or other network-enabled device that has
RADIUS enabled, an authentication request is sent to the RADIUS server to
determine the permission level of the user.
•
RADIUS user names are limited to 32 characters with the unit.
Select one of the following:
•
Local Authentication Only: RADIUS is disabled.
See Local Users, page 23.
•
RADIUS, then Local Authentication: Both are enabled. Authentication is
requested from the RADIUS server first. If the RADIUS server does not
respond, local authentication is used.
•
RADIUS Only: There is no local authentication.
If RADIUS Only is selected, and the RADIUS server is unavailable,
improperly identified, or improperly configured, remote access is unavailable
to all users. To regain access, you must use a serial connection to the
command line interface and change the access setting to local or radiusLocal.
For example, the command to change the access setting to local would be
radius -a local.
Radius
Path: Main > Configuration > Security > Remote Users > RADIUS
You can use a RADIUS server to authenticate remote users. Use this option to do
the following actions:
•

•
Configure the authentication parameters for a new or existing RADIUS server
by clicking on a RADIUS server link.
The RADIUS Server menu for each RADIUS server contains the following options:
•
RADIUS Server: The name or IP address (IPv4 or IPv6) of the RADIUS
server.
•
Port: The port on which the RADIUS server listens to authenticate users. This
is port 1812 by default but can be changed to any unused port between 500032678.
•
Secret: The shared secret between the RADIUS server and the unit.
•
Reply Timeout: The time in seconds that the unit waits for a response from
the RADIUS server.
•
Test Settings: Enter the user name and password configured on the RADIUS
server order to test the configured settings.
•
Skip Test and Apply: Applies the RADIUS server settings without testing.
Configuring the RADIUS Server
You must configure your RADIUS server to work with the cooling unit.
Add the IP address of the unit to the RADIUS server client list (file).
•
Users must be configured with Service-Type attributes unless Vendor Specific
Attributes (VSAs) are defined. If no Service-Type attributes are configured,
users will have read-only access (on the UI only).
•
VSAs can be used instead of the Service-Type attributes provided by the
RADIUS server.
•
VSAs require a dictionary entry and a RADIUS user file. In the dictionary file,
define the names for the ATTRIBUTE and VALUE keywords, but not for the
numeric values. If you change numeric values, RADIUS authentication and
authorization will not work. VSAs take precedence over standard RADIUS
attributes.
Configuring a RADIUS server on UNIX® with shadow passwords
If UNIX shadow password files are used (/etc/passwd) with the RADIUS dictionary
files, the following two methods can be used to authenticate users:
•
If all UNIX users have administrative privileges, add the following to the
RADIUS “user” file. To allow only Device Users, change the APC-ServiceType to Device.
DEFAULT Auth-Type = System
APC-Service-Type = Admin
•
Add user names and attributes to the RADIUS “user” file, and verify the
password against /etc/passwd. The following example is for users bconners
and thawk:
bconners Auth-Type = System
APC-Service-Type = Admin
thawk Auth-Type = System
APC-Service-Type = Device

Description
Router
Controlled
When this radio box is selected, DHCPv6 is controlled by the M
(Managed Address Configuration Flag) and O (Other Stateful
Configuration Flag) flags received in IPv6 router advertisements.
When a router advertisement is received, the unit checks whether
the M and O flags are set. The unit interprets them as follows:
• Neither is set: Indicates that the local network has no DHCPv6
infrastructure. The unit uses Router Advertisements and
manual configuration to get non-link-local addresses and other
settings.
•
M, or M and O are set: In this situation, full DHCPv6 address
configuration occurs. DHCPv6 is used to obtain addresses
AND other configuration settings. This is known as “DHCPv6
stateful.”
Once the M flag has been received, the DHCPv6 address
configuration stays in effect until the interface in question has
been closed, even if subsequent Router Advertisement packets
are received in which the M flag is not set.
If an O flag is received first, then an M flag is received
subsequently, the unit performs full address configuration upon
receipt of the M flag.
•
Only O is set: In this situation, the unit sends a DHCPv6 InfoRequest packet. DHCPv6 is used to configure “other” settings
(such as location of DNS servers), but NOT to provide
addresses. This is known as “DHCPv6 stateless.”

Information
DHCPv6 is used to obtain addresses AND other configuration
settings. This is known as “DHCPv6 stateful.”

DHCP Response Options
Each valid DHCP response contains options that provide the TCP/IP settings that
the unit needs in order to operate on a network. Each response also has other
information that affects the operation of the unit.

Vendor Specific Information (option 43)
The unit uses this option in a DHCP response to determine whether the DHCP
response is valid. This option contains an option in a TAG/LEN/DATA format, called
the APC Cookie. This is disabled by default.
•
APC Cookie. Tag 1, Len 4, Data “1APC”
Option 43 communicates to the unit that a DHCP server is configured to
service devices.
The following, in hexadecimal format, is an example of a Vendor Specific
Information option that contains the APC cookie:
Option 43 = 0x01 0x04 0x31 0x41 0x50 0x43
TCP/IP Options
The unit uses the following options within a valid DHCP response to define its TCP/
IP settings. All of these options, except the first, are described in RFC2132.
•
IP Address (from the yiaddr field of the DHCP response, described in
RFC2131): The IP address that the DHCP server is leasing to the unit.
•
Subnet Mask (option 1): The Subnet Mask value that the unit needs to
operate on the network.
•
Router, i.e., Default Gateway (option 3): The default gateway address that the
unit needs to operate on the network.
•
IP Address Lease Time (option 51): The time duration for the lease of the IP
Address to the unit.
•
Renewal Time, T1 (option 58): The time that the unit must wait after an IP
address lease is assigned before it can request a renewal of that lease.
•
Rebinding Time, T2 (option 59): The time that the unit must wait after an IP
address lease is assigned before it can seek to rebind that lease.
Other Options
The unit also uses these options within a valid DHCP response. All of these
options except the Boot File Name are described in RFC2132.
30
•
Network Time Protocol Servers (option 42): Up to two NTP servers (primary
and secondary) that the unit can use.
•
Time Offset (option 2): The offset of the unit subnet, in seconds, from
Coordinated Universal Time (UTC).
•
Domain Name Server (option 6): Up to two Domain Name System (DNS)
servers (primary and secondary) that the unit can use.
•
Host Name (option 12): The host name that the unit will use (32-character
maximum length).
•
Domain Name (option 15): The domain name that the unit will use (64character maximum length).
•
Boot File Name (from the file field of the DHCP response, described in
RFC2131): The fully qualified directory-path to a user configuration file (.ini
file) to download. The siaddr field of the DHCP response specifies the IP
address of the server from which the unit will download the .ini file. After the
download, the unit uses the .ini file as a boot file to reconfigure its settings.

Host Name: After you configure a host name here and a domain name in the
Domain Name field, users can enter a host name in any field in the unit
interface (except e-mail addresses) that accepts a domain name.
•
Domain Name (IPv4/IPv6): For the display interface, you only need to
configure the domain name here. In all other fields in this UI — except email
addresses — that accept domain names, the unit defaults to adding this
domain name when only a host name is entered.
To override the expansion of a specified host name by the addition of a
domain name, set this domain name field to its default, somedomain.com or
to 0.0.0.0.
To override the expansion of a specific host name entry (for example, when
defining a trap receiver), include a trailing period. The unit recognizes a host
name with a trailing period (such as mySnmpServer.) as if it were a fullyqualified domain name and does not append the domain name.

Web SSL Certificate Configuration
Path: Main > Configuration > Network > Web > SSL Certificate
Add, replace, or remove a security certificate. SSL (Secure Socket Layer) is a
protocol used to encrypt data between your browser and the Web server.
•
Status: The Status can be one of the following:
◦
Valid certificate: A valid certificate was installed or was generated by the
unit. Click on this link to view the contents of the certificate.
◦
Certificate not installed: A certificate is not installed or was installed by
FTP or SCP to an incorrect location. Using Add or Replace Certificate
File installs the certificate to the correct location: /ssl on the unit.
◦
Generating: The unit is generating a certificate because no valid certificate
was found.
◦
Loading: A certificate is being activated on the unit.
IMPORTANT: If you install an invalid certificate, or if no certificate is
loaded while SSL is enabled, the unit generates a default certificate, a
process which delays access to the interface for up to one minute. You
can use the default certificate for basic encryption-based security, but a
security alert message displays whenever you log on.
•
Add or Replace Certificate File: Browse to the certificate file created with the
Security Wizard.
•
Remove: Delete the certificate. See screen text also.
Console Settings
Console Access
Path: Main > Configuration > Network > Console > Access
Console access enables use of the command line interface (CLI).
You can enable access to the CLI through either Telnet or SSH or through both, by
using the Enable check boxes. Telnet does not encrypt user names, passwords,
and data during transmission whereas SSH does.
For the ports to be used to communicate with the unit, you can change the setting
to any unused port from 5000 to 32768 for additional security.
•
Telnet Port: This is 23 by default. You must then use a colon (:) or a space to
specify the non-default port, as required by your Telnet client program.
For example, for port 5000 and an IP address of 152.214.12.114, your Telnet
client requires one of the these commands:
telnet 152.214.12.114:5000 or telnet 152.214.12.114 5000
•
SSH Port: This is 22 by default. See the documentation for your SSH client for
the command line format required to specify a non-default port.
User Host Key Configuration
Path: Main > Configuration > Network > Console > SSH Host Key
If you are using SSH (Secure Shell Protocol) for console (CLI) access, you can
add, replace, or remove the host key on the User Host Key screen.
•
Status: The Status indicates whether the host key (private key) is valid. The
Status can be one of the following:
◦
SSH Disabled: No host key in use.
◦
Generating: The unit is creating a host key because no valid host key was
found.
◦
Loading: A host key is being activated on the unit.
◦
Valid: One of the following valid host keys is in the /ssh directory (the
required location on the unit):
– A 1024-bit or 2048-bit host key created by the Security Wizard
990–2809C
33
InRow™ SCACSC100, ACSC101
Configuring Your Settings
– A 2048-bit RSA host key generated by the unit
•
Add or Replace Host Key: Upload a host key file created by the Security
Wizard. To use an externally created host key, load the host key before you
enable SSH.
NOTE: To reduce the time required to enable SSH, create and upload a
host key in advance. If you enable SSH with no host key loaded, the unit
takes up to one minute to create a host key, and the SSH server is not
accessible during that time.
•
Remove: Delete the host key. See screen text also.
To use SSH, you must have an SSH client installed. Most Linux and other UNIX
platforms include an SSH client, but Microsoft Windows operating systems do not.
Clients are available from various vendors.
SNMPv1 Access Configuration
All user names, passwords, and community names for SNMP are transferred over
the network as plain text. If your network requires the high security of encryption,
disable SNMP access or set the access for each community to Read. (A
community with Read access can receive status information and use SNMP traps.)
When using StruxureWare Data Center Expert to manage a unit on the public
network of a StruxureWare system, you must have SNMPv1 or SNMPv3 enabled
in the unit interface. Read access will allow the StruxureWare device to receive
traps from the unit, but Write access is required while you use the unit user
interface to set the StruxureWare device as a trap receiver.
Path: Main > Configuration > Network > SNMPv1 > Access
Use SNMPv1 Access to enable or disable SNMP version 1 as a method of
communication with the unit.
Access Control
Path: Main > Configuration > Network > SNMPv1 > Access Control
You can configure up to four access control entries to specify which Network
Management Systems (NMSs) have access to the unit. To edit, click a community
name.
By default, one entry is assigned to each of the four available SNMPv1
communities. You can edit these settings to apply more than one entry to any one
community to grant access by several specific IPv4 and IPv6 addresses, host
names, or IP address masks.
•
By default, a community has access to the unit from any location on the
network.
•
If you configure multiple access control entries for any one community name, it
means that one or more of the other communities have no access to the
device.
•
Community Name: The name that an NMS must use to access the
community. The maximum length is 15 ASCII characters, and the default
names are public, private, public2, and private2.
•
NMS IP/Host Name: The IPv4 or IPv6 address, IP address mask, or host
name that controls access by NMSs. A host name or a specific IP address (for
example, 149.225.12.1) allows access only by the NMS at that location. IP
addresses that contain ‘255’ restrict access as follows:
•
◦
149.225.12.255: Access only by an NMS on the 149.225.12 segment.
◦
149.225.255.255: Access only by an NMS on the 149.225 segment.
◦
149.255.255.255: Access only by an NMS on the 149 segment.
◦
0.0.0.0 (the default setting) which can also be expressed as

SNMPv3 Access Configuration
Path: Main > Configuration > Network > SNMPv3 > Access
For GETs, SETs, and trap receivers, SNMPv3 uses a system of user profiles to
identify users. An SNMPv3 user must have a user profile assigned in the MIB
software program to perform GETs and SETs, to browse the MIB, and to receive
traps.
To use SNMPv3, you must have a MIB program that supports SNMPv3.
The unit supports SHA or MD5 authentication and AES or DES encryption.
Enable SNMPv3 Access under the Access menu enables this method of
communication with this device.
User Profiles
Path: Main > Configuration > Network > SNMPv3 > User Profiles
By default, User Profiles lists the settings of four user profiles configured with the
user names apc snmp profile1 through apc snmp profile4, with no
authentication and no privacy (no encryption). To edit the following settings for a
user profile, click a user name in the list.
•
User Name: The identifier of the user profile. SNMP version 3 maps GETs,
SETs, and traps to a user profile by matching the user name of the profile to
the user name in the data packet being transmitted. A user name can have up
to 32 ASCII characters.
•
Authentication Passphrase: A phrase of 15 to 32 ASCII characters (apc
auth passphrase by default) that verifies that the NMS communicating with
this device through SNMPv3 is the NMS it claims to be.
It also verifies that the message has not been changed during transmission,
and that the message was communicated in a timely manner. This indicates
that it was not delayed and that it was not copied and sent again later at an
inappropriate time.
•
Privacy Passphrase: A phrase of 15 to 32 ASCII characters (apc crypt
passphrase by default) that ensures the privacy of the data that an NMS is
sending to or receiving from this device through SNMPv3, by using encryption.
•
Authentication Protocol: The implementation of SNMPv3 supports SHA and
MD5 authentication. One of these must be selected.
•
Privacy Protocol: The implementation of SNMPv3 supports AES and DES as
the protocols for encrypting and decrypting data. You must use both a privacy
protocol and a privacy password, otherwise the SNMP request is not
encrypted.
In turn, you cannot select the privacy protocol if no authentication protocol is
selected.
Access Control
You can configure up to four access control entries to specify which Network
Management Systems (NMSs) have access to the unit. To edit, click a user name.
By default, one entry is assigned to each of the four user profiles. You can edit
these settings to apply more than one entry to any one user profile to grant access
by several specific IP addresses, host names, or IP address masks.
990–2809C
•
By default, all NMSs that use that profile have access to this device.
•
If you configure multiple access control entries for one user profile, it means
that one or more of the other user profiles must have no access to this device.

•
NMS IP/Host Name: The IP address, IP address mask, or host name that
controls access by the NMS. A host name or a specific IP address (for
example, 149.225.12.1) allows access only by the NMS at that location. An IP
address mask that contains 255 restricts access as follows:
◦
149.225.12.255: Access only by an NMS on the 149.225.12 segment.
◦
149.225.255.255: Access only by an NMS on the 149.225 segment.

Port: Enter a port: 502, 5000-32768.
FTP Server Access Configuration
Path: Main > Configuration > Network > FTP Server
Use this screen to enable access to an FTP server and to specify a port.
•
Access: FTP transmits files without encrypting them. For encrypted file
transfer, use Secure CoPy (SCP). SCP is automatically enabled when you
enable SSH, but you must disable the FTP Server here to enforce highsecurity
file transfer.
NOTE: At any time that you want a device to be accessible for
management by StruxureWare Data Center Expert, FTP Server must be
enabled in the display interface of that unit.
•
Port: The TCP/IP port of the FTP server (21 by default). The FTP server uses
both the specified port and the port one number lower. The allowed nondefault port numbers are indicated on the screen: 21, and 5001–32768.
NOTE: Configuring the FTP server to use a non-default port enhances
security by requiring users to append the port name to the IP address in
an FTP command line. The appended port name must be preceded by a
space or colon depending on the FTP client used.

Queries (SNMP GETs)
For more information, see SNMP Trap Receiver Configuration,
page 40 and SNMP Traps Test Configuration, page 40. SNMP
enables an NMS to perform informational queries. For SNMPv1,
which does not encrypt data before transmission, configuring the
most restrictive SNMP access type (READ) enables
informational queries without the risk of allowing remote
configuration changes.
The unit supports the use of the RFC1628 MIB (Management Information Base).
See SNMP Trap Receiver Configuration, page 40 for information on how you can
set up a trap receiver. The 1628 MIB group of three events only works with that
MIB, not the alternative Powernet MIB. They can be configured like any event (see
Configuring Event Actions, page 37).

NOTE: This definition is required only when the SMTP server is set to
Local.
•
Authentication: Enable this if the SMTP server requires authentication.
•
Port: The SMTP port number, with a default of 25. The range is 1–65535.
•
User Name, Password, and Confirm Password: If your mail server requires
authentication, enter your user name and password here. This performs a
simple authentication, not SSI.
•
Use SSL/TLS: Select when encryption is used.
◦
Never: The SMTP server does not require nor support encryption.
◦
If Supported: The SMTP server advertises support for STARTTLS but
does not require the connection to be encrypted. The STARTTLS
command is sent after the advertisement is given.
◦
Always: The SMTP server requires the STARTTLS command to be sent
on connection to it.
◦
Implicitly: The SMTP server only accepts connections that begin
encrypted. No STARTTLS message is sent to the server.
•
Require CA Root Certificate: This should only be enabled if the security
policy of your organization does not allow for implicit trust of SSL connections.
If this is enabled, a valid root CA certificate must be loaded onto the unit for
encrypted e-mails to be sent.
•
File Name: This field is dependent on the root CA certificates installed on the

•
To Address: The user and domain names of the recipient. To use e-mail for
paging, use the email address for the recipient pager gateway account (for
example, [email protected]). The pager gateway will generate the
page.
To bypass the DNS lookup of the IP address of the mail server, use the IP
address in brackets instead of the email domain name, e.g., use jsmith@[xxx.
xxx.x.xxx] instead of [email protected]. This is useful when DNS lookups
are not working correctly.
NOTE: The recipient pager must be able to use text-based messaging.

◦
990–2809C
Local: This is through the site-local SMTP server. This recommended
setting ensures that the e-mail is sent using the site-local SMTP server.
Choosing this setting limits delays and network outages and retries
sending e-mail for many hours. When choosing the Local setting you must
also enable forwarding at the SMTP server of your device and set up a

Event and Data Logs
The event log records individual occurrences. The data log, by contrast, provides
you with a snapshot of your system by recording values at regular time intervals.
Event Log
By default, the log displays all events recorded during the last two days, starting
with the latest events.
Additionally, the log records any event that sends an SNMP trap, except SNMP
authentication failures, and abnormal internal system events.
You can enable color coding for events on the Main > Configuration > Security >
Local Users > Management screen.
By default, the event log displays the most recent events first. To see the events
listed together on a Web page, click Launch Log in New Window.
To open the log in a text file or to save the log to disk, click on the floppy disk icon (
) on the same line as the Event Log heading.
You can also use FTP or Secure CoPy (SCP) to view the event log. See
How to Use FTP or SCP to Retrieve Log Files, page 48.
Filter Event Logs
Use filtering to omit information you do not want to display.
•
Filtering the log by date or time: Use the Last or From radio buttons. (The
filter configuration is saved until the unit restarts.)
•
Filtering the log by event severity or category:
1. Click Filter Log.
2. Clear a check box to remove it from view.
3. After you click Apply, text at the upper-right corner of the Event Log
page indicates that a filter is active. The filter is active until you clear it or
until the unit restarts.
•
Removing an active filter:
1. Click Filter Log.
2. Click Clear Filter (Show All).
3. As Administrator, click Save As Default to save this filter as the new
default log view for all users.
The following are important points on filtering:
•
Events are processed through the filter using OR logic. If you apply a filter, it
works regardless of the other filters.
•
Events that you cleared in the Filter By Severity list never display in the filtered
Event Log, even if selected in the Filter by Category list.
•
Similarly, events that you clear in the Filter by Category list never display in the
filtered Event Log.
Delete Event Log
To delete all events, click Clear Log. Deleted events cannot be retrieved.
To disable the logging of events based on their assigned severity level
or their event category, see Configuring Event Actions, page 37.

Launch Log in New Window
Click Launch Log in New Window to launch the event log in a new browser
window that provides a larger view of the graph.
With reverse lookup enabled, when a network-related event occurs, both the IP
address and the domain name for the network device with the event are logged in
the event log. If no domain name entry exists for the device, only its IP address is
logged with the event.
Since domain names generally change less frequently than IP addresses, enabling
reverse lookup can improve the ability to identify addresses of networked devices
that are causing events.
Reverse lookup is disabled by default. You should not need to enable it if you have
no DNS server configured or have poor network performance because of heavy
network traffic.
Use Event Log Size to specify the maximum number of log entries.
IMPORTANT: When you re-size the event log in order to specify a maximum
size, all existing log entries are deleted. When the log subsequently reaches
the maximum size, the older entries are deleted.
Data Log
Use the data log to display measurements about the unit, the power input to the
unit, and the ambient temperature of the unit.
The steps to display and re-size the data log are the same as for the event log,
except that you use menu options under Data instead of Events.

To delete all events, click Clear Data Log. Deleted events cannot be retrieved.
Data Graphing
Data log graphing provides a graphical display of logged data and is an
enhancement of the existing data log feature. How the graphing enhancement
displays data and how efficiently it performs will vary depending on your computer
hardware, computer operating system, and the Web browser you use to access
the interface of the unit.
NOTE: JavaScript® must be enabled in your browser to use the graphing
feature. Alternatively, you can use FTP or SCP to import the data log into a
spreadsheet application, and graph data in the spreadsheet.

How to Use FTP or SCP to Retrieve Log Files
A Super User/Administrator or Device User can use FTP or SCP to retrieve a tabdelineated event log file (event.txt) or data log file (data.txt) and import it into a
spreadsheet. Both reside on the unit.
•
The file reports all events or data recorded since the log was last deleted or, in
the case of the data log, truncated because it reached maximum size.
•
The file includes information that the event log or data log does not display.
◦
The version of the file format (first field)
◦
The date and time the file was retrieved
◦
The Name, Contact, and Location values and IP address of the unit
◦
The unique Event Code for each recorded event (event.txt file only)
◦
The unit uses a four-digit year for log entries. You may need to select a
four-digit date format in your spreadsheet application to display all four
digits.
Use SCP to Retrieve the Files
Enable SSH on the unit to use SCP to retrieve files.
See Console Settings, page 33.
To retrieve the event.txt file, use the following command:
scp <username@hostname> or <ip_address>:event.txt./event.txt
To retrieve the data.txt file, use the following command:
scp <username@hostname> or <ip_address>:data.txt./data.txt
Use FTP to Retrieve the Files
To use FTP to retrieve the event.txt or data.txt file:
1. At a command prompt, type ftp and the IP address of the unit, and press
Enter.
If the Port setting for the FTP Server option has been changed from its default
(21), you must use the non-default value in the FTP command.
For Windows-based FTP clients, use the following command, including
spaces. (For some FTP clients, you must use a colon instead of a space
between the IP address and the port number.)

How to Export Configuration Settings
How to Export Configuration Settings
Retrieve and Export the .ini File
Summary of the Procedure
An Administrator can retrieve the .ini file of a unit and export it to another unit or to
multiple units.
1. Configure one unit to have the settings you want to export.
2. Retrieve the .ini file from that unit.
3. Customize the file to change at least the TCP/IP settings.
4. Use a file transfer protocol supported by the unit to transfer a copy to one or
more other units. For a transfer to multiple units, use an FTP or SCP script or
the Schneider Electric .ini file utility.
Each receiving unit uses the file to re-configure its own settings and then deletes it.
Contents of the .ini File
The config.ini file you retrieve from the unit contains the following:
•
section headings and keywords (only those supported for the device from
which you retrieve the file): Section headings are category names enclosed in
brackets ([ ]). Keywords, under each section heading, are labels describing
specific unit settings. Each keyword is followed by an equals sign and a value
(either the default or a configured value).
•
The override keyword: With its default value, this keyword prevents the
exporting of one or more keywords and their device-specific values, e.g., in
the [NetworkTCP/IP] section, the default value for Override (the MAC
address of the cooling unit) blocks the exporting of values for the SystemIP,
SubnetMask, DefaultGateway, and BootMode.
Detailed Procedures
Retrieving
To set up and retrieve an .ini file to export:
1. If possible, use the interface of a unit to configure it with the settings to export.
Directly editing the .ini file risks introducing errors.
2. To use FTP to retrieve config.ini from the configured unit:
a. Open a connection to the unit, using its IP address:
ftp> open ip_address
b. Log on using the Administrator user name and password.
c. Retrieve the config.ini file containing the unit settings:
ftp> get config.ini
The file is written to the folder from which you launched FTP.
Customizing
You must customize the file before you export it.
1. Use a text editor to customize the file.
54
•
Section headings, keywords, and pre-defined values are not casesensitive, but string values that you define are case-sensitive.
•
Use adjacent quotation marks to indicate no value. For example,
LinkURL1="" indicates that the URL is intentionally undefined.
•
Enclose in quotation marks any values that contain leading or trailing
spaces or are already enclosed in quotation marks.
990–2809C
InRow™ SCACSC100, ACSC101
How to Export Configuration Settings
•
To export scheduled events, configure the values directly in the .ini file.
•
To export a system time with the greatest accuracy, if the receiving
cooling units can access a Network Time Protocol server, configure
enabled for NTPEnable:
NTPEnable=enabled
Alternatively, reduce transmission time by exporting the [SystemDate/
Time] section as a separate .ini file.
•
To add comments, start each comment line with a semicolon (;).
2. Copy the customized file to another file name in the same folder:
•
The file name can have up to 64 characters and must have the .ini suffix.
•
Retain the original customized file for future use.
IMPORTANT: The file that you retain is the only record of your
comments.
Transfer the File to a Single Unit
To transfer the .ini file to another unit, do either of the following:
•
From the Web user interface of the receiving unit, select the Administration
tab, General on the top menu bar, and User Config File on the left navigation
menu. Enter the full path of the file, or use Browse.
•
Use any file transfer protocol supported by units, i.e., FTP, FTP Client, SCP, or
TFTP). The following example uses FTP:
1. From the folder containing the copy of the customized .ini file, use FTP to
log in to the unit to which you are exporting the .ini file:
ftp> open ip address
2. Export the copy of the customized .ini file to the root directory of the
receiving unit:
ftp> put filename.ini
Export the File to Multiple Units
To export the .ini file to multiple units:
990–2809C
•
Use FTP or SCP, but write a script that incorporates and repeats the steps
used for exporting the file to a single unit.
•
Use a batch processing file and the Schneider Electric .ini file utility.

The Upload Event and Error Message
The Event and Its Error Messages
The following event occurs when the receiving cooling unit completes using the .ini
file to update its settings:
Configuration file upload complete, with number valid values
If a keyword, section name, or value is invalid, the upload by the receiving unit
succeeds, and additional event text states the error.
Event Text
Description
Configuration file warning: Invalid
keyword on line number.
A line with an invalid keyword or value
is ignored.
Configuration file warning: Invalid
value on line number.
Configuration file warning: Invalid
section on line number.
If a section name is invalid, all
keyword/value pairs in that section are
ignored.
Configuration file warning: Keyword
found outside of a section on line
number.
A keyword entered at the beginning of
the file (i.e., before any section
headings) is ignored.
Configuration file warning:
Configuration file exceeds maximum
size.
If the file is too large, an incomplete
upload occurs. Reduce the size of the
file, or divide it into two files, and try
uploading again.
Messages in config.ini
A device associated with the cooling unit from which you download the config.ini
file must be discovered successfully in order for its configuration to be included. If
the device is not present or, for another reason, is not discovered, the config.ini file
contains a message under the appropriate section name, instead of keywords and
values.
If you did not intend to export the configuration of the device as part of the .ini file
import, ignore these messages.
Errors Generated by Overridden Values
The Override keyword and its value will generate error messages in the event
log when it blocks the exporting of values.
See Contents of the .ini File, page 54 for information about which
values are overridden.
Because the overridden values are device-specific and not appropriate to export to
other cooling units, ignore these error messages. To prevent these error
messages, you can delete the lines that contain the Override keyword and the
lines that contain the values that they override. Do not delete or change the line
containing the section heading.
