[Nut-upsuser] I can't make changes to ups.delay.shutdown to stick
Hi All, I'm using an iDowell UPS with the usbhid-ups driver: $ upsc iDowell at localhost battery.charge: 100 battery.charge.low: 15 battery.runtime: 650 battery.type: Pb acc device.mfr: iDowell device.model: iBox device.serial: 00000001 device.type: ups driver.name: usbhid-ups driver.parameter.pollfreq: 30 driver.parameter.pollinterval: 2 driver.parameter.port: auto driver.parameter.productid: 0300 driver.parameter.vendorid: 075d driver.version: 2.6.5 driver.version.data: iDowell HID 0.1 driver.version.internal: 0.37 input.transfer.high: 254 input.transfer.low: 105 output.frequency.nominal: 50 output.voltage: 230.0 output.voltage.nominal: 230 ups.delay.shutdown: 20 ups.delay.start: 30 ups.load: 33 ups.mfr: iDowell ups.model: iBox ups.power.nominal: 257 ups.productid: 0300 ups.serial: 00000001 ups.status: OL CHRG ups.timer.shutdown: 60 ups.timer.start: 0 ups.vendorid: 075d I thought of increasing the ups.delay.shutdown value from 20 to a higher value. The changes seem to take: $ upsc iDowell at localhost ups.delay.shutdown 20 $ upsrw -s "ups.delay.shutdown"="30" iDowell at localhost Username (suzy): admin Password: OK $ upsc iDowell at localhost ups.delay.shutdown 30 However, following a reboot the ups.delay.shutdown reverts to the default value of 20s. I tried running the upsrw -s command as root, but also got 20s after a reboot. This is what the access rights of the configuration files look like: $ ls -la /etc/nut total 48 drwxr-xr-x 2 root root 4096 Apr 4 19:09 . drwxr-xr-x 105 root root 12288 Apr 5 08:15 .. -rw-r--r-- 1 root root 1546 Sep 22 2013 nut.conf -rw-r--r-- 1 root root 3805 Sep 18 2011 ups.conf -rw-r----- 1 root nut 2744 Oct 9 06:50 upsd.conf -rw-r----- 1 root nut 2301 Oct 9 06:50 upsd.users -rw-r----- 1 root nut 11982 Oct 9 06:47 upsmon.conf -rw-r--r-- 1 root root 3891 Sep 22 2013 upssched.conf How is this supposed to work? -- Regards, Mick -------------- next part -------------- A non-text attachment was scrubbed...

The upsrw command was designed for changing variables that are typically stored in non-volatile memory on the UPS. Unfortunately, your UPS doesn't seem to do that. Does the UPS respect the delay setting? (might be easier to see with a much larger delay value.) If not, there is a chance that the mappings from NUT variable names to HID identifiers are incorrect. -- Charles Lepple clepple at gmail

Thanks for clarifying.> The upsrw command was designed for changing variables that are typically > stored in non-volatile memory on the UPS. Unfortunately, your UPS doesn't > seem to do that.Well, if it doesn't do that, how come upsc reports the changed value? It is only after I reboot the PC (not the UPS) or restart the driver that the default value of 20s is shown again.> Does the UPS respect the delay setting? (might be easier to see with a much > larger delay value.)
