I never found a published way after much searching.</div><br><div>I have upsmon running mostly for the email notifications and removed the shutdowncmd command to keep it from running. Rather I'm using a cron job script for "upsc ups@ip.add.rr.ess battery.runtime" to capture the battery capacity and then execute a shutdown when it reaches a trigger.</div><br><div> <div>This solution fits my needs because some servers need to power down before others (apps before storage).</div><br><div>Even in FreeNAS I've decided to use the when "UPS goes on battery" timer with a ridiculously large number that can never be reached, and a dummy shutdown command, just to let the cron job do the shutdown.</div><br> </div><div>Is there another way?</div><div> Is this a sane method?</div><div>Is this a feature that can be requested?</div><br><div>Thanks</div><div>Danny</div><br></div><br></div></div></body></html>
