[Nut-upsuser] Apple Mac slave

> The "upsrw" command contacts upsd, so it sounds like you should be able to add a user to upsd.users on the NAS, and then run something like this on the Mac:

>   upsrw -s battery.charge.low=80 -u upsmaster -s sekret UPS at synology
> 
> Per http://networkupstools.org/docs/man/upsd.users.html <http://networkupstools.org/docs/man/upsd.users.html> , the "upsmaster" user would need at least "actions = SET". You will need to reload upsd after changing upsd.users.



I managed to do this, upsc reports: 

battery.charge.low: 80 instead of 10 

What is the purpose of changing this value?
 


> If the UPS is not turning itself off after the NAS goes into safe mode, it might be possible to do this from the Mac. You probably have something like this in the Mac's upsmon.conf:

>   SHUTDOWNCMD "/sbin/shutdown -h +0"

> You could add an UPS shutdown command before the Mac shutdown command:
> 
>   upscmd -u upsmaster -s sekret UPS at synology shutdown.stayoff
> 
> but you would need to be sure that the UPS shutdown delay is long enough to allow the NAS to go into safe mode. (This is why it is recommended that the master (the NAS in your case) initiate the UPS shutdown.) Also, you would need to configure that NUT user to allow instant commands in upsd.users as well as upsrw access.



I have SHUTDOWNCMD "/sbin/shutdown -h +0” now on the Mac is was SHUTDOWNCMD “” before.


How do I check if the UPS is turning itself off after the NAS goes into safe mode? 




Kind regards,

Rob
