8.2.2 Configure UPS powering the Console Server

A Monitored UPS is a UPS that is providing the power to the Console Server. The purpose of configuring
a Monitored UPS is to provide an opportunity to perform any "last gasp" actions before power is lost
during a power failure. This is achieved by placing a script in /etc/config/scripts/ups-shutdown. You may
use the /etc/scripts/ups-shutdown as a template. This script is run when then UPS reaches critical
battery status.

If the Console Server is drawing power through a Managed UPS that has already been

configured, select Local, enter the Managed UPS Name and check Enabled. The Console Server
continues to be the master of this UPS

If the UPS that powers the Console Server is not a Managed UPS for that Console Server, then

the Console Server can still connect to a remote NUT server (upsd) to monitor its status as a
Slave. In this case, select Remote, and enter the address, username and password to connect.
