SHUTDOWN
UPS shutdown software.
When the power fails and the outage lasts, MayaUPS shuts down virtual machines, hosts, servers and storage in the order you set, within the runtime you have, and brings them back when utility power returns.
FROM OUTAGE TO RESTART
Four steps, one screen.
You set up, test and enable the shutdown sequence in the console.
Define
What shuts down, and in what order.
Choose the trigger, the protected servers, virtual machines, hosts and storage, and their order.
See the platformsTest
A shutdown test with no action.
The test walks through the whole sequence and logs it, without switching anything off.
See the shutdown testEnable
Shutdown enabled.
The administrator enables the event. An emergency stop disables every action in one click.

When utility power returns.
Once utility power is stable, MayaUPS restores UPS output and restarts servers and clusters.

Triggers
Start a shutdown event after a set time on battery, at a remaining-runtime threshold or at Low battery. Each event covers the servers its UPS protects.
What MayaUPS shuts down
Windows and Linux servers through the agent, VMware vCenter and ESXi, vSAN, Hyper-V and SCVMM, Nutanix AHV, Dell VxRail, Proxmox VE, XenServer, XCP-ng and OpenShift Virtualization, then NetApp, TrueNAS, DataCore and NAS storage, and physical servers through Redfish.
Test, enable, stop
Run a shutdown test with no action to see the whole sequence in the log, then enable the event. An emergency stop disables every shutdown action at once.
Restart after power returns
Once utility power is stable, MayaUPS restores UPS output and powers servers on through Redfish or Wake-on-LAN, then restarts clusters in order.
Frequently asked questions
Can MayaUPS shut down servers on UPS from different brands?
Yes. Shutdown events work the same way for every UPS in the fleet, whatever the brand.
What happens if vCenter is already down?
MayaUPS connects to each ESXi host directly and shuts down its virtual machines, then the host.
