Subject:   APC UPS _simple_ signal problems
Message-ID:  <39F4E0AE.D51A2218@home.com>

next in thread | raw e-mail | index | archive | help
Scenario:
---------
1 APC SmartUPS 3000RM
1 NT4 Server
2 FreeBSD Servers
1 APC ShareUPS (for sharing a single UPS between up to eight servers)


The ShareUPS has 8 ports, but only _one_ understands the APC smart
signalling protocol.  I have installed both upsmon and upsd from the
ports collection on the FreeBSD servers, but it appears that both of
these only understand the smart signalling protocol.  So, I need a
utility to monitor an APC SmartUPS on at least one of these servers
using the _simple_ signalling protocol.  APC suggested I use their
open-source simple signalling daemon, but if fails to compile because
"SIGPWR" is not defined (supposedly in signal.h).  A check of the
FreeBSD sources suggests that this signal is indeed not defined (caveat:
I'm not an expert).

Does anyone out there have a suggestion/solution?

TIA
