UPS screaming to replace battery while doing rebuild

Featured Replies

So my UPS decided to tell me to replace battery at the worst possible time: I'm re-building and doing parity check after installing a larger drive. It woudl be fairly loud in my bedroom for the next 30+ hours...

 

Easiest would be to shut the noise on my APC Back-UPS Power-Saving ES 8, but the command upscmd apc beeper.disable I found online doesn't work, and I can't install upscmd with apt-get install either (what happened to apt-get?). There doesn't seem to be an option for this in the unraid control center, either.

 

Option B is to stop the re-build, and install a new battery. Can I safely stop the re-build? I have the original data on another fully functioning HDD.

Yes, but it will re-start from the beginning at next boot.

Yeah, I figured. I'd rather have that than try to sleep through this ruckus :P

 

Thanks!

Unraid is built on slackware linux, which doesn't use apt-get. Not sure what you mean by "what happened", it has never been a part of unraid.

 

It's possible you may be able to control the alarm with apctest, which is part of the apcupsd package that stock unraid uses to manage and monitor the UPS.

Is the battery not hot swappable?

Don't think it is in the mid-range consumer model I have.
