Well, things might be working. ?I have gotten the upsmon.conf set up so that when I unplugthe wall power I get a message. ?Have not yet tested that I get a system shutdown. ?That iscoming soon. ?? One more thing I would like to know, however, and that is this: ?When I get a shutdown, I doNOT want the system to restart when wall power returns (AC power in Costa Rica can bekind of flaky). ? If I did NOT set up any systemd service will I get the action as I want (ie norestart ), or do I need to do something more?? Thanks for all the help. John ?"Science is organized common sense.
