I would like to set up a Linux host as a central monitoring system for
UPSs throughout our network. I’d like that system to be able to see the
various UPSs basically in one of two ways:
1) Tapping into a native network interface on the target UPS (such as some
larger APC and Tripp-Lite UPSs we have)
2) Talking to a Raspberry Pi connected to the UPS via a USB or serial
cable (for lower end UPSs that don’t have network capability)
I’m interested in monitoring and alerting, not so much in making changes
to the UPS settings or shutting down computers, etc.
I think it would be much easier to write a central monitoring script which
talks to the instances of upsd monitoring the UPS units. Let upsd do all
the hard work of talking to the UPS's.
