Hi,
There is a way to say to upsd and upsmon to wait more before declaring
a connection lose or data stale. You have to set the following
variables in your configuration files :
upsd.conf :
The MAXAGE variable is the time upsd wait before declaring data
staled. The default is 15 second. Try something like
MAXAGE 20 or MAXAGE 30
upsmon.conf
the DEADTIME variable is the time upsmon wait to declare an UPS lost
when no responses.
Same as MAXAGE, the default is 15 second. Put a greater number, and it
should do the work ^_^
