upssched call the looping script, and background the process (via '&'). This

<P><FONT face=Arial size=2>When the UPS starts to run on Battery, upsmon
notifies upssched, and upssched runs an "onbatt script", which sends out an
alert every 15 seconds via wall.</FONT></P>
<P><FONT face=Arial size=2>When the UPS is put back on line, upsmon
acknowledges this change (via WALL). However, upssched does not get notified
properly, so the onbatt script continues to send alerts. About 45 seconds
later, upssched acknowledges the UPS change, and disengages the onbatt
script.</FONT></P>
<P><FONT face=Arial size=2>I checked syslog, and I found these upssched error
messages during that 45 second delay:</FONT> </P><BR>
