USB UPS + OpenIndiana

[Child of Wonder]

Anyone have a USB UPS connected to an OpenIndiana host? My file server and ESXi hosts are connected to a CyberPower 1500VAR UPS. I've done some Googling and haven't found much and CyberPower only offers a Linux binary.

I'd like a simple daemon that will tell the file server to power down gracefully if there's a power failure. I tried compiling the tool at networkupstools.org but it fails.

I've had issues with usb support on OI, but recently folks seem to have had success, don't know more than that.

I use an APC ups with APCUPSD and it works perfectly, I've never tried a cyber power, you could try:

Not sure about Solaris support.

good luck.

edit: I'm dumb, I see you tried this already but it didn't work, maybe this will help: http://blogs.oracle.com/mikey/entry/network_ups_tools_on_solaris

Problem some of us had was the usb driver taking a segv

Totally useless since you already have a ups, but I have a liebert with an SNMP module, which has been a pretty trouble free solution - just a bit of scripting for whatever type of behaviour you desire, and nice plots/graphs from cacti.
