Hi,
I searched for a way to power down my box at a predefined time including
switching off the power from the UPS.
"shutdown -h time" handles the shutdown of the system nicely, but to power
down the UPS some changes have to be done:
/etc/sysconfig/shutdown :
HALT_POWERDOWN_INSERT="/etc/init.d/apcupsd powerdown"
"try-powerdown" will only power down the UPS if it is running on battery at
this time.
The script /etc/init.d/apcupsd from apcupsd-3.14.6-8.1 contains a wrong path
for the apcupsd-lite binary, it should be
APCUPSD_LITE=/sbin/apcupsd-lite
instead of
APCUPSD_LITE=/usr/sbin/apcupsd-lite
Additionally, the action performed in case of "powerdown)" has to be changed:
it should perform action "--power-off" instead of "--killpower".
"--killpower" only takes effect if the UPS is running on battery at this time.
Following patch can apply the changes:
