- *** NOTHING IS WORSE THAN A FAILING UPS ***
-
- Some time ago I worked in a bank, during the last night of the month some
- batches were run during 8 hours till early morning. Late in the afternoon
- all UPS warning lights went flashing... Switching off the S38 and back on
- would delay us by more than 2 hours and prevent transactions in the next
- morning.
-
- Always get a GOOD UPS, watch warning indications, try it from time to time
- and follow maintenance schedule closely.
