[Nut-upsuser] Eaton 5PX3000RTN and PW9130L3000R-XL2UN NUT compatibility via network
I am planning to purchase one of the following Eaton UPS units: 5PX3000RTN http://powerquality.eaton.com/5PX3000RTN.aspx?CX=3 PW9130L3000R-XL2UN http://powerquality.eaton.com/PW9130L3000R-XL2UN.aspx?CX=3 Both of which bundle the NETWORK-MS card: http://powerquality.eaton.com/Products-services/Power-Management/Connectivity/Network-MS.asp Can anyone speak to either UPS units' compatibility with NUT using TCP/IP? One UPS will be shared among multiple servers, so local connectivity is not possible. I do see HCL entries for both, but non-specific to network connectivity. There is also a 5PX user posting which provides some indication of basic compatiblility: Subject: Re: EATON 5PX with nut 2.6 on ubuntu 12.04 Date: 2012-12-12 23:15:50 GMT My primary objective is reliable network signaling to Linux for controlled database shutdown on power loss. This would be my first use of non-APC UPS equipment, and first use of NUT. Thanks for any input, I'm eager to get one of these units in hand and start working with NUT. Jeff
