Hi all, I've just built a home/soho server and I'm hoping someone here could help me with a couple of questions. It's a headless server (dual-core, three 320GB hard drive with RAID5) where I'm running the increasingly complicated applications that I use for home and work. It runs the MoinMoin wiki, BackupPC, subversion and Samba filesharing, supportingr two Ubuntu PCs, an iMac and a laptop. (I have five children in secondary/college/university, a busy nurse wife and I use the wiki and subversion from both home and work -- that network gets *heavy* use...)
I'm thinking of using a UPC for the first time. Quick questions: - The server has a 500W power supply (an Antec Phantom), although I did that on the hope that an overpowered power supply will be quieter (and it's very quiet). Does that mean I need a UPS rated at 500W or would a smaller one be OK? The £80-range ones do something like 380 watts. The 500W ones quickly get into the £200 range. - Am I correct that, even in Feisty, all UPS-related software is in universe? There's no fully-supported way of monitoring and reacting to UPS signals? - Does anyone have any recommendations on UPS/software combos? Thanks in advance, -Eamonn -- ubuntu-uk@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-uk https://wiki.kubuntu.org/UKTeam/
