<a href="https://wiki.ubuntu.com/ServerOneiricInfraPower#PowerChain%20implementation" target="_blank">https://wiki.ubuntu.com/ServerOneiricInfraPower#PowerChain%20implementation</a><br><br>The idea here is to add a new variable, named 'device.parent', so that every device can reference its parent.<br>
<br>I propose to add a new entry in docs/nut-names.txt, with the following content:<br><br>| device.parent | Reference to the parent node in the PowerChain (NUT host format) | ups1@localhost<br><br>A new chapter will be created in the user manual, to describe the usage of this feature.<br>
<br>Note that there will be a separate mail to discuss implementation details.<br><br>Comments and feedback welcome...<br><br>cheers,<br>Arnaud<br><br>
