There are a mixture of physical and virtual hosts which adds a fair amount of complexity to the setup. My NUT master polls the APC, and all the slaves poll it. I'm using upssched and upssched-cmd based on the examples from http://rogerprice.org/NUT.html to initiate a timed shutdown of the hosts. I've deployed NUT to the systems using a Puppet module/class I wrote which allows me to specify when to initiate shutdown based on whatever criteria I choose for said systems...i.e shutdown "dev" after 5 minutes, "production" after 10, once all VM's are down take down vmware, etc. > I'm thinking for some time now about a "nutmon" that would still be > simple by default, but that would allow to address everything possible > in NUT. > so your kind of feedback would be very useful. > > cheers, > Arnaud > -- > Linux / Unix Expert R&D - Eaton - http://powerquality.eaton.com > Network UPS Tools (NUT) Project Leader - http://www.networkupstools.org/ > Debian Developer - http://www.debian.org > Free Software Developer - http://arnaud.quette.free.fr/ _______________________________________________ Nut-upsuser mailing list [email protected] http://lists.alioth.debian.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/nut-upsuser
