Hi all,

we may get a ABB Powerscale 40kVA UPS soonish and I am not 100% sure whether we could integrate it easily with nut.

At the price of that unit, if I were the buyer, its management software would support Linux, or you'll go on down the vendor list looking for a unit that does. This tough times is a buyers market and you have considerable $$$ leverage I'd think. The list of supported os's below is archaic and largely obsolete. This is not 1990 anymore. Tell them to look at the calendar and bring their stuff up to todays marketplace.

It will come with SNMP, but reading the docs does not fill me with confidence, especially not as the mention OS/2, Novell and VMS (google translation of [1]) is
"
The UPS Management WaveMon software also provides its data in this SNMP format with its own internal Software agents are available. The one you have The operating system used must support the SNMP and supports. We offer our WaveMon software with SNMP functionality for Novell, OS/2 and all Windows systems based on INTEL, ALPHA, DEC VMS and Apple computers are running.
"

It's not even clear to me, if the "SNMP-card" speaks SNMP natively or one somehow needs this "WaveMon" software to translate propitiatory UPS dat into SNMP.

Anyone on this list with some experience with this kind of UPS?

Cheers and thanks a lot in advance

Carsten
