Excellent! That's good to hear.<br>

</div>I am not sure what you mean here. I chose 80% and 90% as arbitrary test<br>
settings that may be lowered to whatever someone thinks is reasonable.<br>
<br>
Unless I am mistaken, the test I wrote will be set the status to yellow if the<br>
UPS load is greater than or equal to $yellowtest (80%) and the status will be<br>
set to red if the UPS load is eualto or greater than $redtest (80%).<br>
<br>
So we are on the same page I think... You want low loads on your UPS if<br>
possible, and want to go yellow, then red as the % load increases. I think I<br>
just failed to choose reasonable default values. ;)<br>

</div>Haha... Yeah, NUT can be a PITA, but it is generally worth the initial time<br>
spent.<br>

<br>
</div>Yeah, thanks for the advice Josh... I will probably implement that when I get<br>
some time to go back to those scripts. That whole thing started as a way to<br>
just monitor the load or the AC input voltage, then it grew into five<br>
separate, but very similar scripts over time.<br>
<br>
And since the binaries are all in the same place on my test machine, those<br>
were just copied from the previous script, so it was not an issue for me which<br>
is why I hadn't considered that..<br>
<br>
<br>
<br>
Oh... And guess what? I just realized they are all already defined in<br>
~xymon/server/etc/hobbitserver.cfg which gets sourced before the script is<br>
run, so you could probably just comment out those assignments (after adding an<br>
ECHO variable to hobbitserver.cfg)<br>
<br>
I will modify the scripts and not have a variable assignment for "echo" though<br>
since echo is built in to most shells (including bash that my scripts use)<br>
While writing the scripts, I found I had a /bin/echo binary so I set a<br>
variable for it.<br>
<br>
Update coming soon I guess. ;)<br>
<br>
Cheers and thanks for the feedback!<br>
