Description R. Pao 2000-10-24 03:20:08 UTC

The default POWERDOWNFLAG in /etc/ups/upsmon.conf is /etc/killpower.  This file is supposed to be created by upsmon just before 
initiating 
a shutdown.  It never gets created.  I can manually create the file, and then my modified /etc/rc.d/init.d/halt file will call apcsmart with the -k 
option 
correctly.  Upon power up, upsmon is supposed to remove /etc/killpower, but it does not.

PS: I can't enter Component Text:: nut, so I had to chose what should have been before it.  The correct component is nut from disc 2 of RedHat 
7.0.

/etc/killpower is created only after UPS indicates LOW BATTERY condition and upsmon initiates shutdown.  /etc/killpower is not created when status is 
ON BATTERY.
