Network UPS Tools is a suite of programs that can be used to monitor
|
|
the status of an Uninterruptable Power Supply. Nut tries tp support
|
|
"every kind of UPS with sufficient interest behind it." Most decent
|
|
UPS have a serial port for access to status information. The primary
|
|
use of Nut is to notify the machine in the event of a power failure so
|
|
that scripts may be run to properly shutdown your machine. Nut also
|
|
has a network communications layer that allows other machines to
|
|
coordinate shutdowns with the machine that is physically attached to
|
|
the UPS.
|
|
|
|
The 'cgi' flavor adds CGI support so that one may put up web
|
|
statistics about the power status.
