similar to: megatec_usb and "fry's" UPS

Gidday all - I've got a 1700VA dynamix UPS which is USB. The previous model (with a serial port) worked wonderfully with megatec, but this new one with USB is not working. It feels like the kernel is not handing the USB device properly. The web has not yeilded any useful info. What can I do from here? I'm not sure if its a kernel problem or a UPS config problem, but I'm hoping

Gidday all - I'm a new user to nut. I've got some cheap powerpal UPSs working fairly well. However I also have a new Dynamix UPS-1700D and an old Powercom KIN-1700 something unit that I cannot make work right. The best method I've found is "trial and error" which sounds a bit last-resort. Is there any better way to find out what protocol is used? -- Criggie

As Ben mentioned, ZFS snapshots is one possible approach. Another approach is to have a faster storage system. I have seen considerable speed improvements with rsync on similar data sets by say upgrading the storage sub system. -------------------------------------------------------------------- This email is protected by LBackup, an open source backup solution http://www.lbackup.org

I am a developer on the LBackup project. An LBackup user recently posted a question to the mailing list asking about the following error. > "rsync: unpack_smb_acl: sys_acl_get_info(): Unknown error: 0 (0)" Link to thread : <http://www.mail-archive.com/lbackup-discussion at lists.connect.homeunix.com/msg00040.html> My understanding of this error is that when copying files via

Hi, Has anyone had success with the Dynamix 650VA, that uses the USB cable? I can't get megatec_usb to recognize it, I have tried both stable and development versions. Regards Glen Ogilvie

Hi Volker Kuhlmann and Richard Nelson, As both of you are interested in where I got up to with getting my Dynamix 1000 VA UPS working with Linux, here is the details. It works.. But not too well, as the driver still seems to need some work, and is not in the main nut source as far as I know. It also seems to sometimes not respond when it should. The manufacture has uses the same format as

How do you handle snapshotting? or do you leave that to the block/fs virtualization layer? /kc On Fri, Apr 17, 2015 at 01:35:27PM +1200, Henri Shustak said: >> Our backup procudures have provision for looking back at previous directories, but there is not much to be gained with recycled directories.

Hi Carlos, How do you do? :) Can you please clarify the change introduced by the subj (http://boxster.ghz.cc/projects/nut/changeset/1289)? I need to know in particular why did you add these intervals between sending a command and reading the response. They are the root of weird problems with megatec_usb. Can I safely remove READ_PACE and usleep-s? I tried to search the archives and found the

I am involved with the development of lbackup. This message to the rsync mailing list is related to the following thread on the lbackup-disccussion mailing list : http://tinyurl.com/lbackup-discussion-diskfull Essentially, I am curious to if any one using rsync 3.0.7 on Mac OS (10.6) Server has experienced an out of disk space error and not had a message similar to the following reported : >

Like Glen Ogilvie, I got a newer Dynamix 650 VA with USB connection, and was having trouble getting NUT to communicate with it. This appears to be the UPS that megatec_usb was built for - Vendor: 0x0001, Product: 0x0000, uses Megatec's software, has USB chip attached to internal serial lines, and has terrible USB implementation with fake HID tables. But megatec_usb would consistently fail.

I am wondering if there is an option which is similar to --progress that will not display the file names. A percentage indicator would be fine. There is some related discussion at the following URL : http://lists.samba.org/archive/rsync/2004-March/008998.html Any replies regarding ways to achieve this kind of output are welcomed. In addition, a reply like "sorry not supported yet"

Hi, Just purchashed this UPS.

Just chiming in slightly off topic. As a first step if you are going to be backing up files to some media with a computer it would be a really good idea to ensure, that the hardware being used is not faulty. I am not saying that your hardware is faulty. However, it would be worth checking this somehow. Check the drive media for bad blocks, check that all the cables are working well. Ensure the
