== Update to the Latest Nut Version From the Geekery ==
{{Level|Advanced}}
{{Warning box|I can provide little feedback if this is without consequence - seems to work currently}}
=== Install Geekery Repository ===
/sbin/e-smith/db yum_repositories set geekery repository \
Name 'geekery repository' \
BaseURL 'http://geekery.altervista.org/geekery/el5/$basearch' \
EnableGroups no \
GPGCheck yes \
GPGKey http://geekery.altervista.org/download.php?filename=GEEKERY-GPG-KEY \
Visible no \
status disabled
After adding it to the database updating the configuration file is required:
signal-event yum-modify
=== Update Nut ===
yum --enablerepo=geekery update nut
If you are installing a USB UPS, softlink this file in udev rules directory:
ln -s /lib/udev/rules.d/62-nut-usbups.rules /etc/udev/rules.d/62-nut-usbups.rules
and reload udev rules and trigger device detection with these commands:
udevcontrol reload_rules
udevtrigger
The follow the instructions at [[Uninterruptable_Power_Supply]]
* The Geekery is referenced at http://www.networkupstools.org/
* I used this Howto: http://www.howtoforge.com/network-ups-tools-nut-for-usb-upss-on-centos-5.5
=== Why ===
I have a '''Dell UPS Rack 1920W''' - if doesn't work on the standard Nut version. After this upgrade it does on the default configuration.
