At present nut reports that its components have started operation but does not automatically log their activity when UPS's switch between OB and OL. I believe that this under-reporting of important facts is too minimalist - it would be better for system administrators and for the nut support team if a much more complete report were available of all OB/OL activity by each component.I've noticed that NUT doesn't notice short power outages or glitches like previous setups (APC Smart-UPS+Apcupsd) I've had. I do miss that. I thought NUT supported UPS notifications/interrupts so that it can know of power events that happen in-between the regular poll interval. But I don't how much the lack of reporting is due to NUT or the Eaton UPS's I am using now.The default setting in upsmon.conf for ONLINE/ONBATT is SYSLOG+WALL. If those events aren't being logged, we would need to trace further upstream and see if the driver is generating the events. Kris: I don't know the various debug levels off the top of my head, but if you want to manually start the driver with a few -D flags and log the resulting output, we can see whether or not your UPS is sending the notifications the way that the driver is expecting them.
apcsmart quick power cuts @ 20 & 30 usbhid-ups @ 30 & 40The APC unit logs alert_handler: OB. usbhid-ups isn't so obvious, so I'm not sure.
At least the apcsmart driver is reacting immediately, but upsmon reports nothing unless I cut power long enough. upsmond has noticed quick power cut, but I think that's because It happened at the same time as the normal check interval. I'm using defaults here, as far as poll intervals.
Maybe upsd is getting the message, does it push upsmon?I thought to try upsd at full debugging to see if it says anything, but it appears that nothing special is shown for UPS/driver events.
2.7.1 is working fine so far. Thanks for changing the USB timeout.
