Hi! After some problems doing the automatic shutdown of the UPS on Debian, I have found this Debian bug: http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=293401
Now I fixed it calling always ups-monitor from the halt script despite being halt'ed' or powered off (and relying on the POWERDOWNFLAG be set). Which is the correct aproach or best solution to workarround this bug? And now my driver related question: I have an Eaton Ellipse 1000 and I'm using mge-shut driver (because usbhid-ups receive sporadic disconnects). Since then I see that the the driver lists few variables. With the usbhid-ups driver: battery.charge: 100 battery.charge.low: 30 battery.runtime: 5525 battery.type: PbAc driver.name: usbhid-ups driver.parameter.pollfreq: 30 driver.parameter.pollinterval: 2 driver.parameter.port: auto driver.parameter.vendorid: 0463 driver.version: 2.2.2 driver.version.data: MGE HID 1.10 driver.version.internal: 0.33 input.transfer.high: 264 input.transfer.low: 184 outlet.0.desc: Main Outlet outlet.0.id: 1 outlet.0.switchable: no outlet.1.desc: PowerShare Outlet 1 outlet.1.id: 2 outlet.1.status: on outlet.1.switchable: no outlet.2.desc: PowerShare Outlet 2 output.frequency.nominal: 50 output.voltage: 230.0 output.voltage.nominal: 230 ups.beeper.status: enabled ups.delay.shutdown: 20 ups.delay.start: 30 ups.load: 0 ups.mfr: EATON ups.model: Ellipse 1000 ups.power.nominal: 1000 ups.productid: ffff ups.serial: 000000000 ups.status: OL CHRG ups.timer.shutdown: -1 ups.timer.start: -10 ups.vendorid: 0463 And now (using mge-shut via serial): battery.charge: 100 battery.charge.low: 30 battery.runtime: 1981 driver.name: mge-shut driver.parameter.pollinterval: 2 driver.parameter.port: /dev/ttyS0 driver.version: 2.2.2 driver.version.internal: 0.66 outlet.0.desc: Main Outlet outlet.0.id: 1 outlet.0.switchable: 0 outlet.1.desc: PowerShare Outlet 1 outlet.1.id: 2 outlet.1.switchable: 0 output.voltage: 230 ups.delay.shutdown: -1 ups.delay.start: -1 ups.load: 19 ups.mfr: MGE UPS SYSTEMS ups.model: Ellipse 1000 ups.power.nominal: 1000 ups.serial: 000000000 ups.status: OL CHRG Another thing that I noticed is that every time the system boots, the UPS is not responding and I have to restart nut to get ups comm fixed. Basically my questions are: - Is there any fix for the usbhid-ups disconnects? - Will the mge-shut driver suport more features/variables (like the usbhid-ups)? - Why the ups is not responding after a reboot? Serial initialization? Thanks for the help and the good job with nut! _______________________________________________ Nut-upsuser mailing list [email protected] http://lists.alioth.debian.org/mailman/listinfo/nut-upsuser
