Default HP Server PowerSupplies.. anyone got any proper knowledge?

Im just pissing about with loading on our ups and trying to balance the phases properly, however if you look at the power requirements of a HP ML580G2 - Download HP Power Calculator catalog, (excel Spreadsheet) or the DL580g2 Specifics - http://h30099.www3.hp.com/configurator/calc/DL580G2.xls

Now this lists the specs as:

Code:
Total System Input power requirement (W)	For reference only			489
Total System Input current requirement (A)	UPS/PDU/Circuit Breaker Selection			2.1
Total System BTU/Hr	Cooling/Airconditioning Calculation			1668
Total System VA Rating	UPS Selection			499
Total System Leakage Current (mA)	UPS/PDU/Circuit Breaker Selection			2.10
Total System Peak Inrush Current (A) 2mS	UPS/PDU/Circuit Breaker Selection			50
I seem to be getting the same load on Each PSU, rather than one being redundant, can anyone tell me for definite the way this works,

as I have the following,

Servers with dual psus run from different supplys with balanced phases.

If the server psu fails (or say a cabinet of psu fails) then all the remaining psu's in the cab, will increase their load by 50% thus tripping the UPS as the demand has gone over what it can supply per phase.

Make sense??

No, didnt think so.
