I was thinking more in line of what apcupsd does: it runs as a daemon, talks to UPS (and puts wall message about events like power loss...), and executes command to cleanly shut down the box if less than (whatever % of battery juice you configured to start clean shutdown at), and will issue command to cancel shutdown if power returned after shutdown started (sometimes you can do it...). And I usually don't need to do any configuration (using GUI or command line utility) of the UPS itself... so after initial configuration of apcupsd I never get back to it. And, BTW, if you have half of a rack behind one UPS, you can set apcupsd on one machine to talk to UPS, and on other machines set apcupsd to talk to apcupsd on "master" machine making all of them aware, and act as necessary.
nut and upsmon do exactly this. -- john r pierce 37N 122W somewhere on the middle of the left coast _______________________________________________ CentOS mailing list CentOS@xxxxxxxxxx http://lists.centos.org/mailman/listinfo/centos
