NAME
|
||
|
|
----
|
||
|
|
upsc - example lightweight UPS client
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
SYNOPSIS
|
||
|
|
--------
|
||
|
|
*upsc* -l | -L ['host']
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
*upsc* 'ups' ['variable']
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
DESCRIPTION
|
||
|
|
-----------
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
*upsc* is provided as a quick way to poll the status of a UPS server. It can
|
||
|
|
be used inside shell scripts and other programs that need UPS data but don't
|
||
|
|
want to include the full interface.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
OPTIONS
|
||
|
|
-------
|
||
|
|
*-l* 'host'::
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
List all UPS names configured at 'host', one name per line. The hostname
|
||
|
|
defaults to "localhost". You may optionally add a colon and a port number.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
*-L* 'host'::
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
As above, list all UPS names configured at 'host', including their description
|
||
|
|
provided by the remote upsd(8) from ups.conf(5). The hostname defaults to
|
||
|
|
"localhost". You may optionally add a colon and a port number to override the
|
||
|
|
default port.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
'ups'::
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
Display the status of that UPS. The format for this option is
|
||
|
|
'upsname[@hostname[:port]]'. The default hostname is "localhost".
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
'variable'::
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
Display the value of this variable only. By default, upsc retrieves the list
|
||
|
|
of variables from the server and then displays the value for each. This may
|
||
|
|
be useful in shell scripts to save an additional pipe into grep.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
EXAMPLES
|
||
|
|
--------
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
To list all variables on an UPS named "myups" on a host
|
||
|
|
called "mybox", with upsd(8) running on port 1234:
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
$ upsc myups@mybox:1234
|
||
|
|
battery.charge: 100.0
|
||
|
|
battery.voltage: 13.9
|
||
|
|
battery.voltage.nominal: 13.6
|
||
|
|
. . .
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
To list the UPSes configured on this system, along with their descriptions:
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
$ upsc -L
|
||
|
|
apc: Back-UPS 500
|
||
|
|
ppro2: Patriot Pro II
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
To retrieve the status for all UPSes connected to mybox, using Bourne-shell
|
||
|
|
syntax:
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
$ for UPS in `upsc -l mybox:1234`; do
|
||
|
|
upsc $UPS ups.status
|
||
|
|
done
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
DIAGNOSTICS
|
||
|
|
-----------
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
upsc will either print a list of UPS names, a list of all supported variables
|
||
|
|
and their values on the UPS, or an error message. If you receive an error,
|
||
|
|
make sure you have specified a valid UPS on the command line, that
|
||
|
|
linkman:upsd[8] is really running on the other host and that no firewalls are
|
||
|
|
blocking you.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
HISTORY
|
||
|
|
-------
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
Earlier versions of this program used the 'upsfetch' library and UDP sockets to
|
||
|
|
talk to upsd. This version of upsc uses the new 'upsclient' library, which
|
||
|
|
only talks TCP. This is why 'upsct' no longer exists.
