I see this in syslog: Aug 12 03:57:22 orion upsd[18274]: Data for UPS [a102-apc-10] is stale - check driver
(one for each UPS). Then I see a bunch of messages like this: Aug 12 03:58:02 orion upsd[18274]: write() failed for ::1: Broken pipe Aug 12 03:58:02 orion snmpd[2872]: Connection from UDP: [127.0.0.1]:50940 And then it returns to normal like this: Aug 12 03:58:04 orion upsd[18274]: UPS [a102-apc-10] data is no longer stale Where else can I look to find out what really happened? -Bob -----Original Message----- From: Charles Lepple [mailto:[email protected]] Sent: Thursday, August 13, 2015 9:52 PM To: Bob Brown Cc: [email protected] Subject: Re: [Nut-upsuser] occassional problem wtih upslog and apc ups units via snmp ...

Every log interval, each variable is fetched from the server, and if there is an error retrieving that value at that time, "NA" is logged: https://github.com/networkupstools/nut/blob/master/clients/upslog.c#L203 Since they are all "NA" at the same time, it is likely that there is a communication problem, either between upslog and upsd, or between upsd and the driver. In either case, there is probably a syslog message describing the problem in more detail. -- Charles Lepple clepple@gmail _______________________________________________ Nut-upsuser mailing list [email protected] http://lists.alioth.debian.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/nut-upsuser
