Installing UPS Batteries in an APC Smart UPS 2200 Rack Mount 3RU

This document outlines the battery configuration and how to install the UPS Batteries in an APC Smart UPS 2200 Rack Mount 3RU unit.

Requirements:
APC Smart UPS 2200 Rack Mount 3RU Unit
Batteries (SU2200R3X152)

Warning: Please make sure you know what your doing and I cannot be held liable for any mistake in this document as I am not an electrician and these steps worked for me. Please follow these instructions at your own risk. This is electricity, don't be stupid.

1. Disconnect the existing batteries out of the UPS. There will be two sets of plugs one near the entrance and one at the back after the batteries for the first set has been removed. There will be two sets of batteries in an arrangement of 4 per plug. (8 Batteries in Total)

2. Once the batteries has been removed, use the image below for the layout of the battery replacement and cabling to put back in. Please make sure you do not shock yourself, don't touch the positive and negative at the same time. Don't be stupid.

3. Once the battery packs cable has been moved over from the dead batteries to the now working batteries simply reverse the steps back from 1 and 2 to re-insert the first set to the back, plugging in the cable plug within the unit, and then install the second set, and plug that cable plug back into the unit.

OVA/OVF Templates and Older Versions of VMware ESXI

Recently ran into this issue which I feel is something that I should document, as it provides some additional details onto how to configure or modify an existing .ova or .ovf file which is the standard deployment template for ESXI/VMware. Here was the issue: - ESXI 5.5 - OVA required hardware type 8. Gave an error of  " Unsupported hardware version - vmx-8" when testing. Based on everything I was reading, it isn't supported. So using the ovftool which can be found on VMware's Website ( here ) you can basically extract out the ova/ovf file into a directory, and then use it to modify the VMX file and then put it all back together. Steps: 1. Download the application and install it. 2. Go to the directory where the ovftool is stored via cmd line (Typically C:\Programs Files\Vmware\ect..) 3. Issue the following command: ovftool 4. Then modify the .vmx file so that it contains now the hardware ID of 7 (or whatever you need set for your release). 5. Then issu...
