Nut upsuser - Mar 2010 - safe shutdown/startup problems

Debain (Linux) kernel (2.6.24)

I am using NUT(network ups tools) ver. 2.2.2 to monitor my ns1200(model bn1250g)





I disconnect power and use the command to force shutdown "critical
bat", upsmon -c fsd,

and this is what I receive. The outcome is the same if I wait for the battery to
drain.(have tried on 3 ups, same model)







0 seconds "low bat" (upsmon -c fsd)

5 seconds shutdown started

20 seconds system halts & power down

112 ups lcd and master plug power down, 3buttons stay lit

145 ups 3 buttons turn off

155 I restore ac power " plug into wall"

205 I power on my pc(my system won't boot on AC loss, proxmox2 does)

253 receive logon screen



no problems











problems



0 seconds "low bat" (upsmon -c fsd)

5 seconds shutdown started

10 I restore AC power "plug into wall"



Ac power can be restored at any time from here to just before the leds in the 3
buttons go

out and produce the same outcome, 145 seconds above



20 seconds system halts & power down

112 ups lcd and master plug power down, 3 buttons stay lit.

115 ups lcd and master plug power up, online status on lcd.



(the time I power up the system can vary but the time between system power up
and

ups "on bat"& power down is the same "on bat at compact
screen every time")



128 I power up the system "power button"

135 ups goes "on bat", system is at compact bios screen.

251 ups lcd and master plug power down, 3 buttons stay lit.

255 ups lcd and master plug power up, online status on lcd.







I have tried removing the usb cable when the pc shuts down, after power fail,
and plugging it back in when after the ups and pc have been on for about 15-20
minutes, and the ups goes into its shutdown sequence as soon as I plug the usb
cable back in.

This version is (too) old. Nevertheless, in order to give just about  
any help, we need to know which driver you are using right now (and  
possibly a little more info on the brand/model of UPS you're using).

the ver that it said it downloaded was "nut
2.2.2-6.4debian:5.0.4/stable"

Nag the folks at Debian for a newer version or build one yourself. The  
version you're using now is really past its 'use by' date. And you  
still didn't mention which driver you're

We have made many improvements in this driver since nut-2.2.2 was  
released more than two years ago. Before trying anything else, you  
need to upgrade to nut-2.4.2 (or newer).
