HI Tony,
No, you don't need powerchute with apcupsd. Set up the scripts
in /etc/apcupsd to send alerts/pages/emails for the different
events. Then /etc/rc.d/init.d/apcupsd will provide the daemon when
enabled and started.
There's another package apcupsd-cgi which will provide a nice
web page where you can get graphics showing load/battery status/
run time, etc. - but I don't know if it's available in the CentOS
repositories (I'm currently running it on Fedora systems only).

I ran the apcupsd-cgi rpm from yum but don't know how to bring up
the display.
What do I do next?
I do have "gapcmon" displaying the UPS data but it is not complete
with the Belkin ups I have.
Thanks.

Bob,
I don't know if the Belkin unit will work with the software (it
was written for APC devices), but if it does here's how you can see
the status display in a browser:
The apcupsd-cgi package will install a config file in /etc/httpd/
conf.d/apcupsd.conf, so you probably have to restart (or start) your
web server - "service httpd restart". This should allow you to browse
to http://127.0.0.1/apcupsd/multimon.cgi - or use whatever IP you
have set on the machine. This should display some status for the UPS
and you can click on the name of the ups (first column) and you'll
get more detailed information along with three graphic scales which
can display several different values selected from a drop-down list.
