Hi All, About a month ago APC announced they were including MODBUS protocol support in their new APC UPSes. The technical note on this is here: http://www.apcmedia.com/salestools/MPAO-98KJ7F/MPAO-98KJ7F_R0_EN.pdf "Application Note #176 Modbus Implementation in APC Smart-UPS" The APC "announcement" appeared on their site in their user blogs by an APC employee, here:

...Sun) are trying to set up Samba for failover with Sun Cluster 3.0. Has anyone out there done this? Is there a how-to available, or does anyone have tips or tricks? The Sun engineer has a configuration document, but he's getting stuck setting up the fault monitor. Thanks... Gretchen gretchen.mittelstaedt@kodak.com

Here is the general procedure to do this: First, you must compile nut yourself on ubuntu, with the patch, then rename the existing NUT binaries to backup files and copy over your modified binaries to where the original binaries were. However, since these patches are local, if the nut package maintainer for Ubuntu releases a new package, your patches will be overwritten. To fix this, after you

Hello, i write because i have a doubt. I installed on an ubuntu server 12.04 64 bits the service nut with the command apt-get install nut. I configured nut and all is running fine except the shutdown the ups. I find a driver patch (source code) and it solves my problem. This i probe in a virtual machine with the same ubuntu, i compile and do the tests. My question is how i change in the production

...l about knowing what the UPS is up to... going over the network to the router achieves this almost as surely as does going over the USB port to the UPS. So that's my case, as best I understand it.
