Hi all,

I am completely new to NUT and setting up a UPS shut down in Linux. I am looking at buying a APC Smart-UPS X 3000. When I look this device up in the compatibility list this specific model is not listed, only a generic entry for "Smart-UPS". It says to use the *apcsmart* driver. The legend shows this as "protocol based on reverse engineering". What does this mean in terms of using the driver? Can I expect to get this working to shut down my Debian servers gracefully or is it a bad idea to use a UPS with only this driver?

Have users on this list experience with a similar Smart-UPS? Is it going to be compatible with NUT or should I be looking for a different UPS that is supported with one of the other drivers?

Sincerely
