Ive been using a open 4 post threaded rack for some time now and more or less hated it so when I found this one I had to jump on it. However I have some questions since it came with some stuff I'm not familiar with.
The rack is a Liebert rack and UPS system.
PICS
The white thing at the bottom is a water sensor, I can trip it with my finger but nothing happens, I'm assuming I need the UPS working first. There's also a smoke alarm in the top
White switchy things! The top one gets serial I/O from the UPS so im not sure what it can or cant do yet until the UPS is working. The bottom one also is tied in but seems to work fine regardless. The bottom one has 6 outlets that when turned on come up 1 at a time kind of like hard drive staggered spinup, the rate is adjustable.
Liebert UPS, not sure of its condition yet
Looks like i could add in an additional battery back if needed. (i dont need)
Dell rail stuff, got this with it thinking i could use it with my NORCO RPC-470, since 1 rail is attached to a very large plastic thing im assuming not? Anyone know otherwise?
The plug on the UPS. WTF is this. It says 125v 20A. I'm assuming the big plug is since its 20A and not 15A but why is it on an angle like that. Is this bent? Since ill never pull 20A from this thing can I cut it off and replace it with a regular 3 prong plug?
It seems like this case was custom ordered set up like this so whatever I can get working is good. Has anyone ever used a system like this? The water detector, while interesting, is pretty useless to me right now but i want to get it working anyway. Ill test the smoke alarm after work tomorrow but my #1 thing right now is to fire up the UPS and see if there's any life left in the batteries.
