...ld have helped, but it is a clue for anyone else that comes across this thread. I am up and talking to the UPS, so it should just be a matter of getting my shutdown stuff working at this point. One last question if you don't mind. I noticed the "default" POWERDOWNFLAG is set to /etc/killpower, but I changed that to /tmp and modified my umountroot script to mount it read only too, because I know it gets wiped on reboot. Is there anything that removes /etc/killpower on reboot, or a more compelling reason to put killpower in /etc, other than it is usually not on a separate partition? Th...

...is not powered by it. When running "upsmon -c fsd", upsmon says "Auto logout and shutdown proceeding". This is all well and good, but I never see the machine waiting for the UPS to cut the power. Instead it shuts down. It's my understanding that upsmon should create /etc/killpower, report this found in the syslog, and then wait for the power to be cut. Maybe I have misunderstood something? Thanks, Tobias

...about dead at this point, the computer starts to boot up only till the UPS completely dies since its batteries are depleted. This is what is happening: - Low Battery setpoint reached --> issue computer shutdown - Shutdown commands sent --> computer starts shutting down - At some point, /etc/killpower is sent before computer fully shuts down - Computer shuts down - A few seconds later, I hear a clunk in the UPS (UPS powers off... I used a multimeter to verify no AC voltage on the UPS output outlets) - Another few seconds later, I hear another clunk in the UPS --> computer starts to power on...

Hello mailing list I read in the snmp-ups manpage that this driver does not provide a shutdown function because there will be no network at the point it is called. So I studied the Ubuntu initscripts, and in fact the network is killed in /etc/rc0.d/S35networking while the driver would be called at /etc/rc0.d/S90halt so this is correct... however! ...disabling the S35networking seems a simple

...d the UPS to run with the PowerMust driver. My problem however is when I test the powerdown function by issuing the command: 'upsmon -c fsd' The UPS is cutting the power before the shutdown procedure of FreeBSD is done. I have added the following to /etc/rc.shutdown: if (test -f /etc/killpower) then echo "Killing the power, bye!" /usr/local/libexec/nut/upsdrvctl shutdown fi I dropped the sleep command, as it doesn't have the desired effect on FreeBSD. After looking in the mailing list archives I found out that you can add a delay on the powerdo...

By side effect, lack of "killpower" touch file works to not-tell the OS shutdown integration on OMV to turn off the UPS. A more proper way about this is generally to change MONITOR back-ups 1 monmaster 4L[p9<0Vi|Z>xKgK master (see my earlier message or docs about primary/master vs. secondary/slave clients), to MONITO...

APC Smart-UPS X 1500 Restart Issue. Hi All, I have installed nut-2.4.3. I have manually modified the files apc-hid.c and udev-rules to support 5G APC UPS. I took sample code from the 2.5 development tree. Shutdown process is working very well -- upsmon creates the file /etc/killpower - shutdown script checks for the file and issues /sbin/upsdrvctl shutdown - UPS cuts the power off. All is well. I am facing an issue when power is reapplied to the UPS. Following is the behavior I see: 1. Power comes back to the outlet. 2. System powers up. 3. When system reaches "S...

All the notable things that lead to shutdown (UPS going on battery, lowbatt, decision to shutdown, setting FSD flag, setting killpower, calling shutdown) are fair game for syslog. syslog should mostly survive for post-mortem analysis console output is ephemeral anyway, usually extra info is harmful because it makes everything harder to read; a bigger haystack to find a needle (which may be not about nut) Specific...
