Create the file /etc/nut/nf as follows: # /etc/nut/nf They can all share the same physical UPS. Why the extra level of indirection? Multiple instances of upsmon can be started on different machines. upsmon communicates with upsd and actually shuts down the machine in the event of a power failure.

upsd communicates with the UPS driver that we just started. Now, we need to configure upsd and upsmon. Network UPS Tools: 0.29 USB communication driver - core 0.33 (2.2.2) You should see something like the following: Network UPS Tools - UPS driver controller 2.2.2 Finally, we can make sure that nut properly detects the UPS:
Note that the preceding two steps are unnecessary if you have USB-based UPS. Next, issue the following two commands to force udev to make the necessary permissions change:

Replace ttyS0 with ttyS1 if your UPS is connected to the second serial port. Create the file /etc/udev/rules.d/99_les: # /etc/udev/rules.d/99_les If your UPS is connected via the serial port, you’ll need to modify the permissions on the serial port device so that nut can access it. Otherwise, the port will usually be /dev/ttyS0, the first serial port, or /dev/ttyS1, the second. If you have a USB-based UPS, you can leave the port as auto it’s ignored. If your UPS isn’t listed, find similar ones. Find your UPS model on the NUT hardware compatibility list and substitute the corresponding driver for usbhid-ups above. It identifies the UPS to upsd and upsmon. The label in the square brackets can be anything. Next, create or edit /etc/nut/ups.conf: # /etc/nut/ups.conf If it doesn’t, you have to add those manually.
Installing the nut package, should add the nut user and group.
This should conflict with nut-hal-drivers if it’s already installed. HAL is going to be replaced with DeviceKit and nut-hal-drivers will be replaced with DeviceKit-power.Ĭonclusion: Don’t use nut-hal-drivers unless you really, really want a fancy notification icon.

On Debian or Ubuntu systems, install the nut-hal-drivers package. There are two different ways to monitor a UPS with nut: either expose the UPS hardware to GNOME Power Manager through hal or monitor the UPS directly with upsmon and upsd.
