Can you try 'upsc [email protected]' from another system on the network?

The original screenshot in Fig. A said "Remote Error, Battery charge: 42%, 3 minutes / Out of Spec", and Fig B. said "UPS is on Battery Power / Communication with UPS OK". The text in Fig. A is not coming directly from NUT, so it is unclear what the issue is - you may want to check the Synology documentation, or ask their support group. (A battery.runtime value of 180 (3 minutes) seems short, but that's all I can think of.) > > 3.- The Synology inconsistently acknowledges connection to the UPS server , > the following messages can be read: > > a.- Control Panel UPS setup menu > See fig “C" > "Information: Cannot connect to the network UPS server" See comments above regarding 'upsc'. > b.- Logs Report > See fig “D" Those log messages are also not generated by NUT. > > 4.- Although the communication problem between the UPS server and the NAS’es > NUT clients has not been solved, it doesn’t affect the main function, which > is to shutdown the NAS’es during a power loss of the UPS. > > > I’ll appreciate any help in setting up the NUT server configuration to > improve the communication between the clients and the server. > > > Thanks, > > Adolfo Yanes > > > -- Charles Lepple clepple@gmail
