What Is PowerChute Network Shutdown?
PowerChute Network Shutdown is a management software from Schneider Electric designed for uninterruptible power supply (UPS) systems. It facilitates the unattended and graceful shutdown of virtual machines (VMs), clusters, and hosts during power outages, which is essential for protecting data integrity and minimizing downtime when power conditions are restored.
What Are the Key Benefits of Using PowerChute?
PowerChute offers several benefits including automated workload migrations, graceful shutdown of cluster services and hosts, and a pre-configured startup sequence that minimizes downtime after outages. Additionally, it ensures data protection and resiliency during prolonged power disturbances, enhancing the overall management of hyperconverged infrastructures.
What Licensing Changes Should Users Be Aware Of?
As of May 1, 2023, users of PowerChute v5.0 will need to acquire a license for specific advanced features related to HCI and virtualization support. While existing users will continue to have access to basic features without interruption, any future upgrades involving enhanced capabilities will require a license purchase.
