Things changed a bit from the sysv implementation (see http://www.apcupsd.org/manual/manual.html#system-shutdown-test) when systemd came into the picture as many naïve or hack approaches were no longer necessary. It looks like the current packages drop the needed scripts in /lib/systemd/system-shutdown (see https://www.freedesktop.org/software/systemd/man/systemd-halt.service.html) So now with the state file and that script, your UPS (if setup and possible) will be signaled to interrupt power at a safe point once the daemon initiates shutdown. Your next startup log will indicate if a dirty mount was discovered. You should also check /etc/apcupsd/apcupsd.conf for the behavior and time values, there aren't many options and the file is short. _______________________________________________ CentOS mailing list CentOS@xxxxxxxxxx https://lists.centos.org/mailman/listinfo/centos
