Hello,<br>
<br>
I'm trying to integrate upsmon with my alarm management application.<br>
For that I wan't to use NOTIFYCMD from upsmon. I am having troubles making everything work together.<br>
<br>
I'm using nut version 2.4.3<br>
<br>
I created a nutmon user and my script defined in NOTIFYCMD works perfectly when executed in a nutmon shell.<br>
I have configured RUN_AS_USER nutmon<br>
<br>
Here is upsmon.conf :<br>
MONITOR ups_on_usb@localhost 1 nut nut master<br>
RUN_AS_USER nutmon<br>
SHUTDOWNCMD "/sbin/shutdown -h +0"<br>
MINSUPPLIES 1<br>
POLLFREQ 30<br>
POLLFREQALERT 30<br>
HOSTSYNC 15<br>
DEADTIME 60<br>
POWERDOWNFLAG /etc/killpower<br>
RBWARNTIME 43200<br>
NOCOMMWARNTIME 300<br>
FINALDELAY 5<br>
NOTIFYCMD "upsAlarmManager"<br>
NOTIFYMSG ONLINE "UPS %s state is on line"<br>
NOTIFYMSG ONBATT "UPS %s state is on battery"<br>
NOTIFYMSG LOWBATT "UPS %s battery level is low"<br>
NOTIFYMSG SHUTDOWN "UPS %s triggered a server shutdown"<br>
NOTIFYMSG REPLBATT "UPS %s battery needs to be replaced"<br>
NOTIFYFLAG ONLINE SYSLOG+WALL+EXEC<br>
NOTIFYFLAG ONBATT SYSLOG+WALL+EXEC<br>
NOTIFYFLAG LOWBATT SYSLOG+WALL+EXEC<br>
NOTIFYFLAG SHUTDOWN SYSLOG+WALL+EXEC<br>
NOTIFYFLAG REPLBATT SYSLOG+EXEC<br>
<br>
upsAlarmManager's path is defined i environment variable $PATH and i have the same behavior using the complete path.<br></blockquote><div><br>as a general best practice, prefer to use absolute path.<br>this way, you avoid path related issues due to the launch context (see below)<br>

In order to check if it is called, the script writes in /tmp/alarm.txt<br>
<br>
Here are my results :<br>
Upsmon runing as daemon by "service ups start" => /tmp/alarm.txt empty, alarms are not sent<br>
Upsmon runing using command line as root "/usr/sbin/upsmon" => /tmp/alarm.txt empty, alarms are not sent<br>
Upsmon runing in debug using command line as root "/usr/sbin/upsmon -D" => /tmp/alarm.txt is written, alarms are sent to my alarm management framework.<br></blockquote><div><br>are you cleaning the testbed before each tests (ie "rm -f /tmp/alarm.txt"), just to be sure?<br>

I want it to work as daemon. Did i miss something, what is the difference between debug and the other modes?<br></blockquote></div><br>the user context you launched the command from... but more probably here, the way you retrieve data from upsAlarmManager to write it to the file and send it.<br>
<br>To be able to confirm, or at least troubleshoot this issue, I'd need, if possible, to have a look at your script.<br>If that pose a problem to do it publicly, don't hesitate to send it to my @<a href="http://eaton.com">eaton.com</a> address.<br>
