It does, in fact, restart the driver with the "-k" option to kill the UPS rather than monitor it. (If I understand Roger's diagram, systemd invokes the "upsdrvctl shutdown" after most of the other processes have been stopped.)
There are also ways to send shutdown commands to a running driver with "upscmd", which is useful for scenarios other than "shutdown and return when the power returns". http://networkupstools.org/docs/man/upscmd.html http://networkupstools.org/docs/user-manual.chunked/apcs02.html ("Instant commands") _______________________________________________ Nut-upsuser mailing list Nut-upsuser@lists.alioth.debian.org http://lists.alioth.debian.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/nut-upsuser
