Ah, okay, I noted that item and considered it when I connected the UPS the first time to the Mac and was wondering why it does not comes up again after a power failure test. But that's not my current problem: my current problem is: how can I switch off the UPS once the shutdown process of the MAC OS X is done.
I found in a Debian installation for instance that there is a hook into the very last /etc/init.d script (K90halt or something like that) which calls the ups driver to send the shutdown command to the UPS. Now I'm looking for such a hook on the Mac. Cheers and thanks, Wolfgang Am 30.08.2011 um 17:44 schrieb Jerome BENOIT: > > > On 30/08/11 16:06, Wolfgang Hottgenroth wrote: >> I'm running Mac OS X.
