NUT-RECORDER(8) =============== NAME ---- nut-recorder - utility to record device status and values changes SYNOPSIS -------- *nut-recorder* 'device-name' [output-file] [interval] DESCRIPTION ----------- *nut-recorder* is an utility to record device running sequence (Ie power failures or any other change) through a NUT data server, and dump it in a .seq format. The .seq file can then be used by the linkman:dummy-ups[8] driver to replay the sequence. OPTIONS ------- 'device-name':: Record the changes of that device. The format for this option is 'devname[@hostname[:port]]'. The default hostname is "localhost". 'output-file':: Optional. Data will be saved to this file. The default is 'dummy-device.seq'. 'interval':: Optional. The status of the device will be checked every 'interval'. The default is 5 seconds. EXAMPLES -------- To record data from 'ups1@host1' every 10 seconds: $ nut-recorder ups1@host1' ups1-output.seq 10 . . . battery.charge: 100.0 battery.voltage: 13.9 battery.voltage.nominal: 13.6 ups.status: OL . . . battery.charge: 90.0 ups.status: OB . . . You can then define a dummy device in linkman:ups.conf[5]: [ups-test] driver = dummy-ups port = ups1-output.seq AUTHOR ------ Arnaud Quette SEE ALSO -------- linkman:dummy-ups[8] INTERNET RESOURCES ------------------ The NUT (Network UPS Tools) home page: http://www.networkupstools.org/
