UPS can't work with CP1000AVRLCD

[angelmic]

Hi,

I using freeness version: 9.2.1.2 64bit with cyber power ups: CP1000AVRLCD.

But I always get the following message:

Code:

Mar 27 19:54:12 freenas notifier: nut not running? (check /var/db/nut/upsd.pid).
Mar 27 19:54:12 freenas notifier: nut_upsmon not running? (check /var/db/nut/upsmon.pid).
Mar 27 19:54:12 freenas notifier: nut_upslog not running? (check /var/db/nut/upslog.pid).
Mar 27 19:54:12 freenas notifier: Will not 'restart' nut because nut_enable is NO.

Mar 27 19:54:12 freenas notifier: Will not 'restart' nut_upslog because nut_upslog_enable is NO.

Does freeNAS support CP1000AVRLCD or not ??

Thanks your help!

This is more of a question for NUT folks.. http://www.networkupstools.org/

The compatibly list is here.. Looks like it supported via usb and USBHID-UPS.. Have you tried other drivers? http://www.networkupstools.org/stable-hcl.html

It looks like this bug will be fixed for 9.2.2: https://bugs.freenas.org/issues/4647.

Is actual message being displayed a bug or this UPS just doesn't work with FreeNas? I'm about to purchase this model and would like to know before I do this.

 

[dlavigne]

The bug results in lost connections to the UPS and seems to be related to the driver. You might want to hold off on the purchase to see how long it takes to resolve the driver issue. 9.2.2 is a few months away yet.

Do you know if this issue exist for other models in AVRLCD series?

 

[dlavigne]

I think it applies to any UPS that uses the usbhid-ups driver...

I temporarily fix that issue but I need to do following step ever reboot.

FreeNAS running in the usb stick.

Code:

1. mount -uw /
2. add following line to the /etc/rc.conf
    nut_enable="YES"
    nut_upslog_enable="YES"
    nut_upsmon_enable="YES"
3. mount -ur /
4. service nut start
5. add my ups info by WebGUI

So how do I make the changes in the /etc/rc.conf be persistent ??
