Already posted the latter; the former, hey, neat results, excerpted here: MODEL : Smart-UPS 3000 RM STATUS : SHUTTING DOWN LINEV : 118.0 Volts LOADPCT : 55.9 Percent Load Capacity BCHARGE : 100.0 Percent TIMELEFT : 10.0 Minutes <...> TONBATT : 0 seconds CUMONBATT: 27 seconds
You can specify in the conf file that shutdown occurs when it hits X minutes of runtime left - "MINUTES" should be the parameter. You're at 10.0 minutes left & if you have it set to something 10.0 or greater, it's probably gonna want to shutdown immediately at any AC power loss.
I'm afraid you've missed the whole beginning of this thread - I suggest you read it. I know what you were saying; it's the response of apcupsd to a power blip this morning that's the issue: as much as these servers draw,there's no way that the UPS is out of power in 3 seconds.
I'm not saying it's out of battery power. I'm saying you may be telling it to shutdown when it has, by it's own calculations, 10 minutes of battery run time left. I believe the default is 3 or 5 in apcupsd.conf.
Oh, sorry, you weren't clear. Nope, apcupsd.conf is at its default of MINUTES 3.
