There is nothing apparently settable about its LB point via the driver. BTW -- What do
you think "ups.delay.shutdown" means?
ups.delay.shutdown is the number of seconds between when the driver (in
response to LB) sends the UPS the shutdown command, and when the UPS should
actually pull power.
You mean pull power to the server? Then I should definitely increase
that from 64 to 180 seconds as it takes some minutes to shut to 20+ VMs.
The alternative, if you are not as concerned about maximizing runtime, is to
start a timer with upssched when the UPS first loses power, and cancel the
timer if the power returns before the LB threshold is hit. I would advocate the
belt-and-suspenders approach of doing both, just in case your battery starts to
weaken, and you hit the LB threshold before the timer expires. The upssched
approach has the disadvantage of being time-based rather than percentage-based,
but it should get the job done.
I will look into this approach as well. Thanks for the pointer.
