Power management 
HP UPS Power Protection Agent overview 
The HP UPS Power Protection Agent runs on a local or network server and allows the management module 
to gracefully shut down the operating system of that server and optionally run a script during power failure. 
Install the agent on any machine that is powered by the UPS and any machine that the management module 
uses to initiate a command. 
 
  NOTE: If you are an existing HP Power Manager user, you must uninstall the HPPM Remote 
Agent before installing the UPS Power Protection Agent.
