Title: Reverting to USB UPS
Post by: skinny on July 27, 2006, 09:45:49 PM

Hi all,
I have been using an aging Belkin F6C350zSER-SB UPS connected via serial cable to SME Server 7.0.  As a bit of a newbie, I thought that was pretty cool.  Unfortunately the battery life is no longer sufficient to keep the power on long enough to complete the shutdown process :-(

I am intending to replace the UPS most likely one with a USB cable.  I previously used the following command when setting up the serial UPS
     config setprop nut Device /dev/ttyS0
I guess I will need to change this to point tot he USB port, but I can't find what command I need to do this.

Any help would be appreciated
Cheers Skinny

Try:

config delprop nut Device
signal-event post-upgrade
signal-event reboot
