Citeren Marco Chiappero <[email protected]>:

A possible sample configuration could be:

[globalups]
        driver = mgensm-ups
        port = parallel
        minimum = 1
        ups1.port = ups1.domain.com
        ups1.outlet = main
        ups2.port = ups2.domain.com
        ups2.outlet = 2
        ...

The 'minimum' parameter and redundancy is something that should be dealt with in the client(s), not the driver. This is where the NSM approach currently breaks.

As I said we assume that we are using only Eaton/MGE products, otherwise the NSM does not look the way to go. About machines with multiple PSU, if I'm not wrong NUT should already deal with them.

Yes. In the upsmon clients (for good reason). You don't want to do this in the server, let alone in the driver.

[...]

So, at the end, is it interesting or not? May I spend some time on this in the future? Or am I going to waste my time?

I'm afraid the latter, until we find a way how to make this transparent to the upsd server. Ie, let a single driver update multiple outlets through a single driver socket. This would be possible, but this would probably require quite a bit of work on the upsd server.

Best regards, Arjen
