<p>I have a need to use NUTS on a Windows 2016 Server however as all
the resources are Linux orientated I am having serious issues
getting things to behave.</p>
<p>We have a serial Port COM4 attached to a Liebert GXT2-3000RT230
using its dedicated cable.</p>
<p>It worked fine when we could use JAVA and the windows 'Multilink'
software which came with it.<br>
</p>
Only MSI I could find in download section - Nut Build 5/3/2014 13:33
290kb <br>
<p>Because of potential file name issues it is installed in
c:\UPS\NUT and the .\etc files have been tweaked as follows:</p>
<p>NUT.EXE Run as a system service, NUT user has read access to
everything. Also put .\BIN and .\SBIN in path.<br>
</p>
<p><u><b>nut.conf</b></u></p>
<p>MODE=1</p>
<p><u><b>ups.conf</b></u></p>
<p>[UPS2]<br>
driver = liebert-esp2<br>
port = /dev/ttyS3<br>
desc = "UPS No 2"</p>
<p>NUT as a service starts and stops immediately so I thought I'd
try, after much investigation, at lowest common denominator and
see what the Driver is reporting.</p>
<p>In an elevated CMD shell it says cannot find a /dev/ttyS3 so
obviously reading the ups.conf file and /dev/ttyS3 is the wrong
thing to put there.<br>
</p>
<p>I don't know how else to translate the device name and I can't
find any documentation to help with the translation for windows.</p>
<p>Should the <i>driver = liebert-esp2</i> actually read <b>driver
= liebert-esp2.exe</b></p>
<p>I can live with a UPS shutdown only system as the scheduled
trigger is to run a custom EXE i've created so we can do the
majority of stuff outside of NUT.<b><br>
</b></p>
<p><b>It would be nice to do battery tests etc but I doubt anyone
will be looking at this any time soon.</b></p>
<p>Fellow NUTters, is there anyone out there with Windows experience
and this driver ?<b><br>
