The liebert came into the space with old batteries - it was alive when
delivered but the original batteries died.
There was also an expansion battery case that was unused that came with it
- I transplanted 6 of the unused batteries into the UPS so it is almost as
good as new.
It never had rack rails but was originally mounted on L-shape shelf rails.

There is room for it in the boxed in power meters where doorbot is.
I t had been proposed earlier to house it there and run three lengths of
mains cable to:
 1. The network cabinet
 2. Coolbot
 3. Babbage
to provide clean UPS power to those bits of kit.

I did recently powe rup the UPS to give the batteries a bit of excercise.
