I'm assuming that you have one UPS per server, and that server-1 is fed 
by UPS-1.


When server-1 shuts down, whichever server is in charge of UPS-1 should 
execute command


 upsdrvctl shutdown UPS-1

Does this happen?  Is this command called by a script or a systemd service 
unit?  Is there any trace of the action of that script/service unit in 
/var/log/messages or the systemd journal?

[Nut-upsuser] UPS is not turned off in slave-only configuration?

2016-06-22 Thread André Hänsel
I have two hosts.

One is the ups-server. It's generator powered and can be assumed to never go
down. This is the one that all the UPSs are connected to. It has:
- the UPSs configured in upsd.conf
- a "upsmon master" user in upsd.users
- an empty upsmon.conf

The other one is server-1. Its upsmon.conf contains:
MONITOR test-apc@ups-server 1 monuser blah slave

Now, what I see is that when the UPS feeding server-1 goes LB, server-1 is
indeed shut down, but it seems that the UPS is never switched off.

This is a problem because when power is restored after shutdown, but before
the battery runs out (with no load, it continues for quite a while),
server-1 is not rebooted.

Is my configuration wrong? How can I help diagnosing this problem?

Ok, I did some further testing and it seems that setting "upsmon slave" does
not allow clients to connect, so when would I want to set it?

[Nut-upsuser] What is the purpose of the upsmon setting in upsd.users?

2016-06-22 Thread André Hänsel
Hi list,

(I think) I understand that in upsmon.conf, the MONITOR line ends with
"master" or "slave". Basically if it's master it will wait for slaves to
shut down and if it's slave it will signal the master to switch off the UPS
after shutdown.

To be able to monitor a network UPS as a slave, there must be a user in
upsd.users on the master system. This user needs to have a setting named
"upsmon" set.

And this is where I'm confused - this setting has a parameter that must also
be set to either " master" or "slave". What do I set this to?

Regards,
André
