NAME¶
upsd.users - Administrative user definitions for NUT upsdDESCRIPTION¶
Administrative commands such as setting variables and the instant commands are powerful, and access to them needs to be restricted. This file defines who may access them, and what is available.[admin] password = mypass actions = set actions = fsd instcmds = all
[pfy] password = duh instcmds = test.panel.start instcmds = test.panel.stop
[monmaster] password = blah upsmon master
[monslave] password = abcd upsmon slave
FIELDS¶
passwordSet the password for this user.
actions
Allow the user to do certain things with upsd.
To specify multiple actions, use multiple instances of the actions
field. Valid actions are:
SET
change the value of certain variables in the
UPS
FSD
set the forced shutdown flag in the UPS. This
is equivalent to an "on battery + low battery" situation for the
purposes of monitoring.
Let a user initiate specific instant commands.
Use "ALL" to grant all commands automatically. To specify multiple
commands, use multiple instances of the instcmds field. For the full
list of what your UPS supports, use "upscmd -l".
The cmdvartab file supplied with the distribution contains a list of most of the
known command names.
upsmon
Add the necessary actions for a upsmon process
to work. This is either set to "master" or "slave".
Do not attempt to assign actions to upsmon by hand, as you may miss something
important. This method of designating a "upsmon user" was created so
internal capabilities could be changed later on without breaking existing
installations.
