[Nut-upsuser] Computer doesn't shutdown, only broadcasts a message to say low battery

[Philip Gaskell]

Hi,

I have a Liebert Powersure Personal XT 700 and have followed the 
installation instructions from here 
http://www.networkupstools.org/doc/2.0.0/INSTALL.html. I'm pretty sure 
I've got the ups.conf, upsd.conf and ups.users correct. I have setup 
upsmon.conf as suggested in the installtion guide with the exception of 
FINALDELAY which I set to 0 when I found things weren't working correctly.

I have seen the hardware list and know my ups isn't listed so I'm not 
expecting great things.

What happens is when I yank the plug the UPS starts beeping correctly,
/usr/local/ups/bin/upsc myupsname at localhost ups.status gives OL. When 
the battery starts running out I get a message broadcast on all active 
terminals saying battery is low but the system doesn't shutdown. 
Wondering if I had `shutdown` and its associated files wrong I changed 
the SHUTDOWNCMD from `/sbin/shutdown -h +0` to `touch 
/tmp/should.be.shutting.down`, however this file isn't created after the 
broadcast message saying the battery is low. `/usr/local/ups/bin/upsc 
myupsname at localhost ups.status` gives "OL LB", when the battery is low.

Is there a vital option I have not set, when firing up upsdrvctl, upsd 
and upsmon no errors are given.

thanks for any help,

Phil

Oh, by the way I'm running Slackware 10.1 with the 2.6.10 kernel from 
/testing. Though I think I'm almost there, perhaps its something to do 
with it thinking its got power when its not.
