Suggestion for a UPS

    Zitat von Nabukodonosor

    In the meantime, can someone help me out with installing the right plugin and whatnot in the OMV?

    Go to OMV-Extras (wrote to fast) System -> Plugins and install the Nut-plugin, ;)

    Re-read the thread (or most of the 1st page) and most pointers are here, :)

    I have to install usbhid-ups driver, right?

    The plugin will take care of everything, ;)

    If I remember correctly, wait to install or activate the plugin until the UPS is connected. When the plugin is installed type usbhid-ups in the Comments section of the plug-in’s setting page.

    type usbhid-ups in the Comments section of the plug-in’s setting page.

    At least in my case, everything was already edited on the Services -> UPS


    All it took was to click Enable

    The rest is default (except Shutdown Mode:(

    Code
    Mode=Standalone
Identifier=ups
driver = usbhid-ups #<----already filled
port = auto # <----- already filled
Shutdown Mode= UPS reaches low battery (my load is around 5%, a bit overkill, for now) #<---- My choice

    I’m out of the house right now, but thanks to you Soma (wildcard Duckdns & reverse proxy Swag) here’s a screen shot from my iPhone of my settings. Yes, most of it is preset when it is installed.

    In post No. 3 of this thread I posted a link to the list of controllers that best suit each UPS. You have to find the model and use the controller that says there.

    It's this openmediavault-nut 5.5.2-1 plugin? I just want to be sure.

    Yes

    Yes, ;)


    If your UPS usb cable is already connected to the OMV, just install it.


    Then go to the Services section and UPS will show there.


    The page that Agricola showed will be seen.

    Just click "Enable" and you can see the UPS status on the Diagnostics -> Services page

    According to the list chente linked to the Eaton Eclipse requires a mgr-shut setting.


    Edit: it does indeed take the usbhid-ups setting. Sorry all and thanks Soma for the correction.

    Zitat von Agricola

    According to the list chente linked to the Eaton Eclipse requires a mgr-shut setting.

    It's the Eaton Ellipse ECO 650 USB FR:


    It uses the usbhid-ups, ;)

    I installed the plugin, enabled it, but when I try to Apply changes I get this error:

    Do what the error tells you and publish the result

    systemctl status nut-driver.service

    journalctl -xe


    Also take a screenshot of your nut configuration in the GUI

    Here. But keep in mind that the plugin is not enabled now.



    The log says:  No matching HID UPS found


    nut comprises three parts:

    - the driver to read the from the UPS (started with upsdrvctl start)

    - the upsd daemon to publish the UPSes reading (started with upsd)

    - and clients to access the readings for the cli it is upsc <our UPS name>)


    The nut driver does not start unless the UPS is connected. Make sure the USB-Cable is plugged and the UPS is power on.

    or from the cli: lsusb

    If you got help in the forum and want to give something back to the project click here (omv) or here (scroll down) (plugins) and write up your solution for others.

    If anyone checks out this thread, here is some summary information.

    [How-to] use the openmediavault-nut plugin

    Been trying to follow that info but I'm feeling like a noob: (hope this is someone else's situation so to have some pointers AKA piggyback-ride :D )


    My case scenario:

    UPS on a OMV5-nut plugin running on 192.168.1.200 as standalone:

     



    And OMV6 running on 192.168.1.134 beeing power fed by the same UPS.

    How can I have the OMV6 shutdown (or receive a signal) when the UPS reaches the shutdown time and does it on OMV5?


    What user to configure on the OMV5 Remote Monitoring?


    And on OMV6, what is the configuration to use?

    Mode = Netclient # <- This I think it's a no-brainer since the UPS is on OMV5 as standalone

    Identifier = ups # <- The same name as the OMV5

    Netclient Hostname # <- The LAN IP can be used????? Or does it need to be the Hostname where the UPS is plugged?

    Netclient Username # <- This is where the doubt lives: can I just use any user or does it have to be a specific one?

    Netclient Password # <- Password for the above user


    Thank you all and Seasons Greetings

    Been trying to follow that info but I'm feeling like a noob

    I felt the same when I got to that part of the guide. ^^

    That part of the guide was difficult for me to write because I don't have a UPS with that capability to test this procedure. Sorry, I guess my explanation is a bit "dark" in that part. From what I understood by reviewing the NUT documentation the UPS must have the capacity to do this. Maybe I got it wrong?

    I would really appreciate this information and an explanation of the correct procedure, to be able to explain this more clearly in the guide.

    The guide is perfect, ;)

    Zitat von chente

    That part of the guide was difficult for me to write because I don't have a UPS with that capability to test this procedure.

    The UPS here (as I see it) has nothing to do with it.

    The control is all on the nut-server/client


    See it this way:


    UPS has 2/3 battery controlled sockets:

    On plug1, is attached server1 (OMV5) running the "standalone mode" (usb cable plugged)

    On power failure, the OMV5 will receive a shutdown signal when Low Battery is reached.


    On plug2, is attached server2 (OMV6) running the "netclient mode" (no physical comms with the UPS )


    On power failure, plug1 and plug2 are still ON via the UPS battery.

    When the config of the UPS reaches the time to send the shutdown signal to OMV5, the OMV6 netclient monitoring will also tells it to shutdown.


    As soon as I configure this (I'll set the OMV6 to shutdown as soon as the UPS looses grid power while the OMV5 is configure to wait for Low Battery Signal from the UPS).


    Hope this makes sense, ;)

    The way you describe it is how I understood it at first. But reading the NUT documentation something (can't remember what) made me think otherwise.

    I await your results. If it works, I would appreciate it if you could post the exact steps and settings.

    To test this setup I would have to install OMV on a raspberry, and it's something I keep resisting. Don't yank my ears. :)
