Configuring powered computers to monitor a Managed UPS

Once you have added a Managed UPS, each server that is drawing power through the UPS should be
setup to monitor the UPS status as a Slave. This is done by installing the NUT package on each server,
and setting up upsmon to connect to the Console Server.

Refer to the NUT documentation for details on how this is done, specifically sections 13.5 to 13.10.

http://eu1.networkupstools.org/doc/2.2.0/INSTALL.html

An example upsmon.conf entry might look like:

MONITOR [email protected] 1 username password Slave

- managedups is the UPS Name of the Managed UPS

- 192.168.0.1 is the IP address of the Console Server

- 1 indicates the server has a single power supply attached to this UPS

- username is the Username of the Managed UPS
