ups comunication problem

Roman Szewczyk — Mon, 10 Dec 2007 20:59:02 GMT

Hi,
I have rp3440 running hpux 11.23, connected to ups. Im using hp power manager 4.0. Ive configured everything using sam and it works fine... for couple of days and then connection problem. Ive noticed that reason is that daemon devman disapears, restart of the daemon and again four days ok, and the same scenario. Can you help me, what can be the reason of such behaviour, maby I had done something wrong during install. thank you in advance.
regards romek

czesc,

Do you have the latest patch bundle?

Did you check you /etc/inittab for your respawn statement. Something like the follwing

ups::respawn:rtprio 0 /usr/lbin/ups_mond -f /etc/ups_conf

Forget ups_mond - you are using power manager.

This is totally different.

First you should uninstall and install version 4.1.

Install it and choose the right device file.

Check if this works better.

Here is the link:

Port device is on 0/7/1/0 port 0 - should be tty0p0, IIRC.

BTW, what did you configure with SAM?

You need to check the line must be **disabled** in /etc/inittab:

#ups::respawn:rtprio 0 /usr/lbin/ups_mond -f /etc/ups_conf
