similar to: Server not shutting down before power loss

HI thanks for replying and helping. I've now ran the UPS down a few times from full charge to test and I don't think it's the batteries or a problem with the UPS itself. I can watch it go from 100% right down to 1% over 20 minutes etc and then the power gets so low that everything just powers off! I think it's down to Nut not actually shutting down my server that is my problem...

Is the battery old? PbAc ones usually last for 2-3 years and then degrade. Should be a field-replaceable part. Some 20 years ago I had an APC BackUPS become a glorified power strip every few years, so when the wall power disappeared - load went down immediately. It was also beeping about battery replacement (but in the closet, was not often noticed quickly). This is also a way for you to check if

Hi security@ list, In my self written, large ipfw rule set, I had something that passed http to allow me to browse most but not all remote sites. For years I assumed the few sites I had difficulty with were cases pppoed MTU != 1500, from not having installed tcpmssd on my 4.*-RELEASE, but then running 6.1-RELEASE I realised that wasn't the problem. http://www.web.de Still failed, &

Dear Friends Greetings, i have a question for you, i am sure someone can help. The pfsense captive portal is up and running. Time countdown vouchers are working without issue, such as 30m, 45m, 1h & so on. However, I'd like to set up a download quota of 200MB per voucher. but then you need to login with a username and password, instead of vouchers. but I haven't found a way to

I have taken out the batteries and measured them with a multimeter. They put out 13V (they are rated 12V 9Ah). Putting them back again and disconnecting the UPS from the mains it is kept on, powering all the connected devices. The shutdowns only occur when the UPS is being monitored. Are you sure it's a battery problem? Do UPS perform further tests when they are being polled for data?

Hi, Can anyone shed some light on this: My PC's are on a separate power circuit. Each PC has its own UPS. I have an old Honda generator. When the power goes out, I fire up the generator. However, the UPS's still run on battery. If I connect the PC directly to the socket and bypass the UPS, the PC works. I was told by a UPS supplier, that the power output from the generator was

Does anyone need any remote administration (or local if you're in Portland, OR)? I've been using freebsd on a daily basis for almost 2 years for everything from a desktop system to running dns and apache. I'm also 2 semester's away from finishing my AAS in CIS: network admin, all A's. Oh, did I mention I'll do it for free?

Hi, One of my APC devices reports: "unacceptable utility voltage rate of change". I believe it has something to do with input voltage fluctuating too fast maybe even beneath or over the input voltage thresholds. Should I worry about this? should I measure input voltage? (I suppose I'd need more than multimeter readings. Maybe an oscilloscope or a multimeter that can record

OK. I'll try it, but it really puzzles me how the battery could have gone bad for just 15 months. The online power is pretty stable, so the battery hasn't gone through many charge/discharge cycles...

Hey all, I've read through as many relevant mailing list posts and public blog posts as I could, but I can't seem to find an answer to my issue. I currently have 2x Tripp Lite SMART1500LCDXLs, and I am attempting to monitor both of them with the same Raspberry Pi using NUT. The problem I have is there doesn't seem to be any way in the nut.conf to differentiate between the two UPS via

a friend gave me an old apc smart-ups 1250 it has a rs232 interface but i have no pc with a rs232 port i attempted to use a rs232 to usb adapter but the ups goes nuts i connected the ups to batteries and verified it was working properly when i plug the usb cable into the pc the ups shuts down when i attempt to turn it on it beeps twice and shuts down this all occurs before i start the nut software
