Path: /model/vendors/compaq/compaq_ups.mod

This behavior model detects the failure and degradation of a computer's uninterruptible power supply (UPS) system. If a failure is detected via a trap, NerveCenter first takes a quick poll to make sure it is not a power surge. If it is not a surge, the alarm transitions in to the ACLineFail state. An e-mail is sent notifying the administrator that the UPS has lost AC power and how much time is left in the UPS. It will also include whether or not the system attached to the UPS will perform an automatic shutdown when the UPS is low on power.
