As we have every day, we had a power blip overnight. one, at least, of the servers connected to a SmartUPS via cable, announced that "power exhausted, initiating shutdown" (which I've disabled).
The thing is, I know the servers on that UPS draw a ridiculous amount of power, but I don't see that on the others... and this was three seconds, not minutes, after it announced there was a power outage.
Has anyone else seen this behavior?
You mean UPS's behaving badly? Yes, they break like everything else, especially the batteries.
Nah, I think it's something with apcupsd.
Doesn't it log the message as received from the UPS? It if has a network interface you should be get messages via syslog, email, snmp, etc., and there is probably a web interface with status showing expected battery capacity at the current load.
The entire contents of that incident. I see nothing in messages.
