Dave, My NUT skills are rusty so I may need correcting, list feel free to enlighten me. Last I recall there are two main triggers for shutdown, LB (low battery) from the status variable or a timer that begins when the status varible goes from OL (on line) to OB (on battery). In your case I would

Daniel, Yes this can be done with some manipulation of the minsupplies setting and the monitor settings. The LDAP servers would monitor themselves as normal and shut down as normal. The NFS server would get a weird config. It would monitor its own UPS as well as the UPS on each LDAP server. Set

Does your system have the drivers loaded for the converter? If your system can see the USB device AND the serial port then NUT needs a serial driver. Most likely, this works fine. Otherwise the megatec driver would be complaining about not being able to open the port. So most likely, either

Greg, Another option to look at is to use an ethernet to serial converter. Nut works fine with these set up as a virtual serial port on the guest. Your unit appears to have serial support according to the web and for most of the cards I havd priced the converters are cheaper than the SNMP cards.

One suggestion would to be to determine if the serial port is working and what it is named without Nut involved. Use a terminal program and a loopback or some known device to test and confirm the port. There are several cases in the archives that talk about testing serial ports as well as Google.

What version of VMWare are you running? This makes a difference as to your choices. Do you have the VMWare tools installed on the virtual machines? With most versions you can have the host shut down the guest. Some versions give more options than others. As I understood from a previous thread

Hello, I am looking for a compatible brand for nut. I currently have both APC and MGE units in house. I liked the MGE units and had switched to them after several bad experiences with the APC line. We ordered 13 APC Rack mount units and the quality was horable. One blew up, two did not have the

Lars, The win client includes several timers that can be used to simulate what you seek. There is a timer that can be set to cause the server to shut down after X minutes on battery. You can set this to the needed times giving you the sequencing you are looking for. The down side is the issue of
