Hi All, I'm a system administrator of a large data center, and I've recently replaced the machine that acted as the nut master for our cluster/cloud. The machine that was interfacing with our Powerware 9135 450KVA 3 phase UPS, not to confused with Eaton's Powerware 9135, and was a Fedora Core 4 box running nut version 2.0.3-4 connected by a serial cable.
We are using these versions of nut on our FC4 machine: Network UPS Tools - UPS driver controller 2.1.0 Network UPS Tools - BCMXCP UPS driver 0.11 (2.1.0) We've had intermittent UPS driver problem, but it worked. Now I'm trying to connect to our UPS using this new machine and I get this: root@omen:/etc/nut# upsdrvctl start Network UPS Tools - UPS driver controller 2.4.3 Network UPS Tools - BCMXCP UPS driver 0.23 (2.4.3) RS-232 communication subdriver 0.17 Connected to UPS on /dev/ttyS0 with baudrate 9600 Communications with UPS lost: Error executing command Could not communicate with the ups Driver failed to start (exit status=1) I've tried to google for an answer and found a great reference, but I haven't been able to communicate with the UPS http://blog.shadypixel.com/monitoring-a-ups-with-nut-on-debian-or-ubuntu-linux/ Is there any diagnostics or log files I can create to track down this problem? "Driver failed to start (exit status=1)" isn't all that helpful Thanks in advance for any and all help. Best, Greg PS I have both machines, so if I missed anything I can get it for you. _______________________________________________ Nut-upsuser mailing list [email protected] http://lists.alioth.debian.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/nut-upsuser
