It needs to be readable by upsdrvctl and any drivers, +# and by upsd. +# +# --- +# +# This is where you configure all the UPSes that this system will be +# monitoring directly. These are usually attached to serial ports, but +# USB devices and SNMP devices are also supported. +# +# This file is used by upsdrvctl to start and stop your driver(s), and +# is also used by upsd to determine which drivers to monitor. The +# drivers themselves also read this file for configuration directives. +# +# The general form is: +# +# [upsname] +# driver = <drivername> +# port = <portname> +# < any other directives here > +# +# The section header ([upsname]) can be just about anything as long as +# it is a single word inside brackets. upsd uses this to uniquely +# identify a UPS on this system. +# +# If you have a UPS called snoopy, your section header would be "[snoopy]". +# On a system called "doghouse", the line in your upsmon.conf to monitor +# it would look something like this: +# +# MONITOR snoopy@doghouse 1 upsmonuser mypassword master +# +# It might look like this if monitoring in slave mode: +# +# MONITOR snoopy@doghouse 1 upsmonuser mypassword slave +# +# Configuration directives +# ------------------------ +# +# These directives are common to all drivers that support ups.conf: +# +# driver: REQUIRED. Specify the program to run to talk to this UPS. +# apcsmart, fentonups, bestups, and sec are some examples. +# +# port: REQUIRED. The serial port where your UPS is connected. +# /dev/ttyS0 is usually the first port on Linux boxes, for example. +# +# sdorder: optional. When you have multiple UPSes on your system, you +# usually need to turn them off in a certain order. upsdrvctl +# shuts down all the 0s, then the 1s, 2s, and so on. To exclude +# a UPS from the shutdown sequence, set this to -1. +# +# The default value for this parameter is 0. +# +# nolock: optional, and not recommended for use in this file. +# +# If you put nolock in here, the driver will not lock the +# serial port every time it starts. This may allow other +# processes to seize the port if you start more than one by +# mistake. +# +# This is only intended to be used on systems where locking +# absolutely must be disabled for the software to work. +# +# maxstartdelay: optional. This can be set as a global variable +# above your first UPS definition and it can also be +# set in a UPS section. This value controls how long +# upsdrvctl will wait for the driver to finish starting. +# This keeps your system from getting stuck due to a +# broken driver or UPS. +# +# The default is 45 seconds. +# +# +# Anything else is passed through to the hardware-specific part of +# the driver. +# +# Examples +# -------- +# +# A simple example for a UPS called "powerpal" that uses the fentonups +# driver on /dev/ttyS0 is: +# +# [powerpal] +# driver = fentonups +# port = /dev/ttyS0 +# desc = "Web server" +# +# If your UPS driver requires additional settings, you can specify them +# here. For example, if it supports a setting of "1234" for the +# variable "cable", it would look like this: +# +# [myups] +# driver = mydriver +# port = /dev/ttyS1 +# cable = 1234 +# desc = "Something descriptive" +# +# To find out if your driver supports any extra settings, start it with +# the -h option and/or read the driver's documentation. |
