NUT developers, The NUT protocol suppports enumerating UPSes, but this functionality is not currently in upsc. Does anyone have any objections to adding a "-l" option or similar to fetch this list via upsc? We could also emulate "finger" syntax, and use "upsc @hostname" for to list UPSes, but that syntax would be more appropria...

Hi Occasionally I get emails from my NUT system saying that one of my UPSes lost power for about a minute. Losing power: Date: 15. nov 2010 17.40.25 CET regaining power: Date: 15. nov 2010 17.41.34 CET 69 seconds later. But why? None of the 3 other UPSes reports any power loss. What is the problem? So I made some scripts that logs the input, output and frequency at t...

Hello, I've got a setup with NUT, where we've got two UPSes, ups1 and ups2. UPS1 supports our servers, while UPS2 supports our desktop boxes. We monitor both of them via USB on a box now called "upsmon". The interesting point comes here. We monitor both UPSes on the upsmon box, but if UPS2 fails, which supports our desktop boxes, NUT shouldn'...

...n, upsmon and its config files would go away but there would still be a role for upsd and the drivers. The rest of this note will be founded on this assumption, because without it NUT would be *entirely* pointless. Which brings me to my next question: 2. Why should we care about contact-closure UPSes any more? NUT carries around a huge load of tools and documentation designed for a class of UPSes that can't be health-monitored. All they can do is initiate shutdown before the actual power drop, which as I've argued above is nowadays unnecessary. It follows that NUT could drop all s...

Hi, I've stumbled over a race condition in upssched when using 3 or more UPSes in combination with START-TIMER/CANCEL-TIMER. I have a solution that works but is ugly, so I'm going to describe the bug here in the hope somebody can come up with a better solution. The problem is in upssched.c:629 check_parent() (see https://github.com/networkupstools/nut/blob/master/client...

Is it possible to shutdown earlier by certain conditions: by battery level and estimated by UPS runtime. In APCUPSD this done by config options "BATTERYLEVEL" "MINUTES". By what condition NUT shutdown server? How to disable UPS shutdown?

Carsten, This is a common issue in technology when you have complex products that the majority of consumers of those products do not understand how they operate. If most UPS customers understood the importance of standardization they would have refused to purchase non-standard UPSes and all UPSes would have long ago standardized on a single management protocol. The normal thing is that product manufacturers do not want standard commodity products. They want custom, specialized products. That creates customer lock-in. With simple products - like a toaster or a gallon of mi...

Hello list, I have the following hardware setup: - HP C7000 enclosure, with 4 blade servers - two power supply modules in the enclosure (one is enough to sustain the 4 blades) - two UPSes, each one feeding one of the enclosure power supplies I would like to configure NUT to initiate an early shutdown of that environment only if *both* UPSes are on battery. I've created the 2 "MONITOR" entries, giving 1 power supply each, and I've set MINSUPPLIES to 1. But since...

Hi there, I made a new driver, based on blazer, that should work with most of the UPSes manufactured by Voltronic Power - http://www.voltronicpower.com/oCart2/index.php?route=product/category&path=37- and rebranded as Atlantis Land, Cablematic, EPC, FSP, Mustek, SHT, Tuncmatik and many others (they come with a software called Viewpower - http://www.power-software-download.com/vie...

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: http://foru...

Hello all, I have so far used only Eaton UPSes, but I'm considering buying PowerWalker VFI 3000RT LCD and on NUT compatibility page <https://networkupstools.org/stable-hcl.html> I see that PowerWalker devices are supported by blazer_usb <https://networkupstools.org/docs/man/blazer_usb.html> driver, which is "/based on...

Hello everyone. I recently created a set of external scripts for the Xymon Networking Monitor system to monitor and graph AC input voltage, AC output voltage, battery charge %, battery voltage, and UPS Load % of UPSes managed by the Network UPS tools (NUT) suite. The scripts make use of the "upsc" program to poll the upsd daemon and report the information back to the Xymon server for graphing and alerting. For those who do not know, Xymon is an open-source network and systems monitoring tool that is...

Hi, I've got a question about managing two UPSes under NUT. I have two similar model APC usb-connected UPSes to work with, but don't know how to manage them simultaneously from under Windows. Long story short, my ups.conf looks like this: --- ups.conf --- [ups1] driver= usbhid-ups port= auto serial=AS1054340323 [ups2] driver= usbhid...

...t up. Apparently my DB9-to-USB cable (Prolific Technology, Inc. PL2303 Serial Port) has issues needing old software (setserial?) and some new software (fconfigure) being changed.  Has anyone managed to do something like this?     I'm still also interested in knowing how to control the three UPSes I have in the house (except FE700VA not re-setup yet) over the network, from one of them.  I managed to load some webpages to monitor them but can you shut them all off from there?

...-cofigurable... This UPS is not usb-hid ups, and works well with this settings in NUT: [powercom] desc = "powercom" driver = powercom port = "/dev/serial/by-id/usb-POWERCOM_CO.__LTD._USB_to_Serial-if00-port0" type = IMP lsusb -v fragment attached. Unlike other UPSes, gnome-power-manager does not see this device (after installing nut-hal-drivers in Ubuntu), and /dev/ttyUSB0 having group "dialout" (not "nut"). I'm not guru of devkit/hal/udev "rules.d" rules and other stuff, so, can you patch original device-kit-power rules? Or,...
