5. What is on Your Mind?
This thread reminded me of a couple of screwups made by an operator in my old job. The ops used to run OS backups through a script which asked for the path to the tape (/dev/rmt/whatnot). We (the sysadmins) would give these to the ops if a new server was added or the h/w path changed. One Sunday... (4 Replies)

POWERMAN-PDU(8) NUT Manual POWERMAN-PDU(8)
NAME
powerman-pdu - Driver for Powerman PDU
SYNOPSIS
powerman-pdu -h
powerman-pdu -a PDU_NAME [OPTIONS]
Note
This man page only documents the hardware-specific features of the powerman-pdu driver. For information about the core driver, see
nutupsdrv(8).
SUPPORTED HARDWARE
This driver supports a wide range of PDUs through the Powerman project.
This includes various models from APC, Baytech, Cyclades, but also support IPMI and various blade management modules from HP, IBM and Sun.
EXTRA ARGUMENTS
This driver doesn't support any optional settings.
INSTALLATION
This driver is not built by default. You can build it by using "configure --with-powerman=yes".
UPS COMMANDS
The following instant commands (see upscmd(8)) are available for each outlet of the PDU, with X standing for the outlet number:
outlet.X.load.on
Power on the outlet.
outlet.X.load.off
Power off the outlet.
outlet.X.load.cycle
Cycle the outlet (power off then power on, possibly with a delay).
IMPLEMENTATION
The hostname of the Powerman server is specified using the "port" value in ups.conf, i.e.:
[pdu]
driver = powerman-pdu
port = host.example.com:port
The port used to reach powermand is optional if the default port is used.
KNOWN ISSUES
In the current NUT version (2.4.1), ups.status is still exposed, with the value "WAIT". Some other values from the ups collection are also
exposed.
