No, I only use APC anymore for PDUs. It's the others I've dealt with I don't like. There's quite a few I've never used but after the painfully expensive experiences I've had with Tripp-Lite, Bay tech, MGE (though I think they're part of Schneider or APC now), Liebert (which at the time looked suspiciously the same as the Tripp-Lite's but with a bigger price tag), and a couple others I'm certainly forgetting. I'd heard there were some bad batches that were DOA from APC, but haven't personally experienced any myself. I've had a couple management cards in Symmetra LXes fail, and that same Symmetra chassis had a power/inverter/charger module fail around the same time.

Hello Michael, does that mean you do not employ PDUs in your network? I.e., found a UPS with sufficient number of outlets in the back. With that in mind, could you make a recommendation for such a UPS-direct for a VM environment.
Kind Regards,
Nick.
