NAME¶
mge-shut - Driver for SHUT Protocol UPS equipmentSYNOPSIS¶
mge-shut -hSUPPORTED HARDWARE¶
mge-shut supports all recent Eaton, MGE and Dell UPS models which use the SHUT (Serial HID UPS Transfer) protocol.EXTRA ARGUMENTS¶
This driver also supports the following optional settings: lowbatt=numSet the low battery warning threshold at which
shutdown is initiated by upsmon(8).
The factory default value is 30 (in percent), and can be settable depending on
the exact model.
offdelay=num
Set the timer before the UPS is turned off
after the kill power command is sent (via the -k switch).
The default value is 20 (in seconds). Usually this must be lower than
ondelay, but the driver will not warn you upon startup if it
isn’t.
ondelay=num
Set the timer for the UPS to switch on in case
the power returns after the kill power command had been sent but before the
actual switch off. This ensures the machines connected to the UPS are, in all
cases, rebooted after a power failure.
The default value is 30 (in seconds). Usually this must be greater than
offdelay, but the driver will not warn you upon startup if it
isn’t. Some UPS’es will restart no matter what, even if the power
is (still) out at the moment this timer elapses. In that case, you could try
if setting ondelay = -1 in ups.conf helps.
notification=num
Set notification type to 1 (no), 2 (light) or
3 (yes).
The default value is 3 (yes) because of some early Ellipse models which need
it.
KNOWN ISSUES¶
Repetitive timeout and staleness¶
Some models tends to be unresponsive with the default polling frequency. The result is that you have some "data stale" errors in your system log.AUTHOR¶
