My thought of #2 require none of that . . . I have a server with two supplies, and two UPS units. One supply is on each UPS, and clients are distributed otherwise to balance. The main thing is to ensure that it is documented accurately how to config so that the server only shuts down when the *second* unit hits low battery . . . I found the info on this topic almost nonexistent at present . . .
