TVTM_Brian Posted September 22, 2020 Share Posted September 22, 2020 Is it possible to have my unRAID server ssh into another linux server and fire a `shutdown -h now` command when unRAID initiates it's 10% shutdown? I have multiple servers connected to a single 2U UPS but can only connect the USB cable to one at a time... Quote Link to comment
trurl Posted September 22, 2020 Share Posted September 22, 2020 You might be able to do that, but it's not necessary to accomplish what you want. The other server must also run apcupsd, and you configure apcupsd on that other server to monitor the UPS status over the network to the apcupsd on the Unraid server, and configure apcupsd on that other server to shutdown based on that status it gets over the network. Or, you could do it the other way and have USB cable on the other server and have Unraid monitor it over the network. I do it like this except my other computer is running apcupsd on Windows instead of linux. Obviously the network must be on UPS for this to work. Quote Link to comment
TVTM_Brian Posted September 30, 2020 Author Share Posted September 30, 2020 Sorry for the delay, been hectic lately.... Finally got apcupsd to work on the 2nd server, thank you! Quote Link to comment
