NUTS
Network UPS Tools (NUT)
How It Works
NUTs Init Script
/etc/init.d/nuts starts 3 programs
- /usr/sbin/tripplite (or other UPS driver name)
- /usr/sbin/upsd
- /usr/sbin/upsmon
NOTE: Whether or not UPSD gets started is determined by /etc/sysconfig/ups.
This will determine if the machine will be a UPS server or client based on its IP address.
UPSD
UPSD is the server software that runs on s001, s021, s041....
It will look at /etc/ups/upsd.conf for access information.
TRIPPLITE
This is the driver that allows communication between UPSD and the UPS.
It will look at /etc/ups/ups.conf for driver information.
UPSMON
This is the program that queries UPSD as to the status of the UPS.
UPSMON runs on all machines running NUTs.
The prorgram looks to /etc/ups/upsmon.conf for config info.
NOTE: Changes should be made to /etc/ups/upsmon.conf.base as this file generates the upsmon.conf file.
UPSSCHED Script
Upon power loss, the ON BATTERY status will cause upssched.sh to run.
This will begin a countdown to when the machine will shutdown.
Changes should be made to /etc/ups/upssched.conf
