OK, not an OmniOS matter but as a lot of people here will be using UPSs, I hope it's alright.
I made what is apparently the common but incorrect assumption that the serial monitoring port on the back of my APC 700 UPS had a standard serial pinout but for some reason the TxD and RxD are swapped. Is this just some random brain-&*^# on the part of an android within APC, or is there some actual reason for it? Don't plug a standard serial cable into the UPS: it instantly powers off. No fooling. This is the first step in getting UPS software monitoring in place. I presume that the software of choice is NUT? I can't find it in a repo so I suppose it's a build-it-yourself job.
