Yes, you replace <myups> with the address of your UPS, for example "ups at 192.168.x.y". Are you using Dash or Bash?

Thank you!  Sorry for another bonehead question….

Ok, so now that I think of it, that might not actually work when it is not run by me. I guess that it all confirms that it works in Bash, but I think when it runs on its own it would use Dash... The default login shell remains bash. Opening a terminal from the menu or > shortcut [crtl-alt-t] provides interactive bash. A script run from the > desktop or file manager, through the dialogue

Right, but I don't know what NUT script is actually calling it. I don't know how else I would check.

Ok, gotcha, I did that. I believe Ubuntu uses Bash for user sessions and Dash fornscripts, so followed your instructions for Dash. I put the getUPStatus bits in .bashrc and tested in Terminal and got: UPS status is [OL]:100 So I went ahead and put your SHUTDOWNCMD in upsmon.conf. I think it should be working now.... -- Todd Benivegna // todd at benivegna.com On Aug 4, 2020, 3:13 AM -0400, Roger

> Sorry. I've lost the thread here, what is the "it" you refer to? I’m not an linux expert so you’ll have to bear with me, but I guess the it I was referring to whatever NUT is using since what we’re editing is a config file, not a script; it doesn’t have a shebang at the top. > If you run the command > > grep nut /etc/password I got:  grep: /etc/password: No such file

upsmon.conf on server:  https://pastebin.com/z4CrUTxb nut.conf on server:  https://pastebin.com/540ShZH7 Permissions for /etc/nut:  https://hastebin.com/qecolodapi.diff On the Synology (I didn’t edit any of these files): ups.conf:  https://hastebin.com/dedereqizi.shell upsd.conf:  https://hastebin.com/pupeseweda.css upsd.users:  https://hastebin.com/ocenamecex.cs I don’t think I am able to run

Roger, I just ran a manual test, killing power and see what happens.  I set the Synology “Time before DiskStation goes into Safe mode” to 5 minutes so I didn’t have to wait like an hour until it powered down.  Here is the log: https://hastebin.com/ovuwilufeb.sql Everything appeared to be normal; the servers powered off and the Synology went into safe mode.  Power was then cut to the Synology

Roger, Ok, so how does this look... Updated upsmon.conf:  https://hastebin.com/jisinaquso.pl > I'm guessing that the UPS supplies only the NAS, not the 3 Ubuntu machines. Do > they have their own UPS's? No, the Synology and the three servers are all on the one UPS (also my switch and spare monitor). All these are super low power devices (two Intel NUCs and a Raspberry Pi) so at

Hi Roger, I am not home, but when I do get home I will check out everything you've mentioned. I do have some time where I can give you a breakdown of my topology though. I have a feeling all of this is probably due to a configuration error somewhere on my part. Here's what I have done so far. *APC Back-UPS NS 650M1 UPS* ---USB---> *Synology NAS (DS416 - Master?)*

Roger, How would you write the SHUTDOWNCMD line with multiple commands?  I’ve been looking at the manual and see that you have to escape the internal “ but am still a little confused on how to do this exactly. -- Todd Benivegna // todd at benivegna.com On Aug 2, 2020, 9:38 AM -0400, Roger Price <roger at rogerprice.org>, wrote: > > upsmon.conf doesn't support reporting battery

Yes, I have tried that.  I have also tried less than one second.  I’ve tried for 1-2 minutes, for 3-5 minutes, I’ve tried just about every length of time and all appears Ok when I manually test. -- Todd Benivegna // todd at benivegna.com On Aug 5,

So I finally got a test in after I changed my RPi to the master and everything else (including my Synology) to slaves.  Before I did that though, I timed the shutdown of my Synology since it is the slowest slave to shutdown.  It took 40 seconds to shutdown, so I changed HOSTSYNC in upsmon.conf on the master (“Proton”) to 60.  I then did a test ("sudo upsmon -c fsd”). The slaves shutdown, then

I'm hoping that someone can shed some light on this… I have a Synology NAS (DS416) that has a feature where you can enable a “Network UPS Server” which is a NUT server.  I have been trying to get the Synology to shut down three Ubuntu 20.04 servers that I have. While it does work when I test it out manually, sometimes when I am away and the power goes out briefly, the servers shut down when

Thanks Larry, no problem. I appreciate the input. Whenever you get a chance I’d really like to compare notes with someone who has NUT and a Synology to see why the heck mine doesn’t work! ;). I’m also using my Pi as the master like you. Thanks. Todd -- Todd Benivegna // todd at benivegna.com On Aug 14, 2020, 11:55 AM -0400, Larry Fahnoe <fahnoe at fahnoetech.com>, wrote: > On Fri, Aug

It looks as if Synology wanted to write their own "NUT", but decided it would be easier to put their ideas in a script when they saw they could use upssched.conf to call it. NUT intends such a script for timer management. Synology use it for general system management.
