http://www.networkupstools.org/ has a page where it gives all the necessary
config changes for a Mandriva system. Since that is very similar to any
RH-based system I used that for checking. Almost everything was exactly as I
had set it up. To complete the match, I added the 'allowfrom' line, and
changed user from root to the designated ups user, then tried to start the
service:
[root@borg2 ~]# service upsd start
upsd: unrecognized service
[root@borg2 ~]# service upsmon start
upsmon: unrecognized service
At that point I felt utterly defeated and uninstalled nut.
The Liebert manual gives requirements for running on Linux, amounting to RHEL4
and quite low-end hardware. Installation instructions are minimal - it seems
to imply that if you use Linux you know exactly what you are doing :-)
I identified the correct install file on the CD, and changed to that
directory. Then:
[root@borg2 Linux]# sh ML_36_003_Linux_x86.bin
Using /tmp for temporary storage.
Unpacking to /tmp/ML.tar...

Unable to perform the installation. Either the distribution
file is corrupt or there is insufficient free space in /tmp.
This product requires free space at least 3 times the size
of the distribution file in /tmp. If that much is available,
please try downloading the file again.
Use 'ML_36_003_Linux_x86.bin <path>' to specify an alternate temporary
directory.
[root@borg2 Linux]# ML_36_003_Linux_x86.bin

Does this mean that I need Sun java installed? (I have java-1.6.0-openjdk.)
Or is there a conflict between the installed java and what it is trying to
do?
I'm not sure why everything I try to do gets so complicated, but I can only
assume that I look for trouble and find it :-)
