ABSTRACT:
The present invention provides a method, apparatus and computer-readable program for providing management of a computing complex during a utility interruption. More specifically, the present invention provides an automated method, apparatus and computer-readable program to manage the selected power down of devices within an information technology computing complex when the loss of conventional utility service occurs. This invention selectively shuts down systems/devices within the computing complex based on the criticality of the systems/devices and the current state of environment parameters (e.g., battery reserve level, temperature, time, etc.) monitored within the computing complex.
