Automated data center shutdown in the event of a power failure

Customer requirement

The customer was looking for a solution to prevent data loss and hardware damage in the event of a power failure** - including automatic restart processes after the power returns.

Challenge

The complexity of the IT infrastructure required a finely tuned shutdown logic with consideration of different priorities and dependencies - tightly limited in time by UPS capacities.

Project highlights

Protection against data loss & hardware damage in the event of a power failure
Automatic UPS-controlled shutdown sequences
Restart processes for fast system availability
Real-time monitoring & alarming

SPIRIT/21 solution

SPIRIT/21 implemented automated shutdown logic with direct UPS integration, prioritized sequence control and monitoring. A restart planning ensures an orderly restart after the power supply is restored.
