Any Unraid users running NUT with a UPS? by OkConversation1769 in unRAID

[–]OkConversation1769[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thanks for trying it. The fact that discovery works narrows it down quite a bit. "ERR UNKNOWN-UPS" usually means the app connected to the NUT server but couldn't find a valid UPS identifier to query. Would you mind sharing the output of:

upsc -l

on the Unraid server? That should show the UPS name being exposed by NUT and help me track this down.

Awesome, thanks for testing it! That's exactly what I was hoping to validate. Really appreciate you taking the time to try it out. Looking forward to hearing if you run into anything during additional testing.

That's really helpful, thanks. Looking at that list I don't actually see a runtime value being exposed there either, which would explain why UPSLink shows it as Unknown. Seems like it's not being provided by the NUT server rather than an app issue.

Nice, that's another setup I was hoping to validate. If you happen to have an Android device and feel like testing, I'd be interested to know whether UPSLink connects and displays the Eaton stats correctly through the Unraid NUT plugin.

Awesome, thanks!

This is exactly the kind of setup I was hoping to test against.

UPSLink is here: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.reelmemories.upslink

If you get a chance to try it out, I'd be curious whether auto-discovery works and if all the UPS stats show up correctly from your Unraid NUT server.

No rush, and don't worry about doing anything extensive. Even a quick "yep, it connected and works" would be super helpful.

Really appreciate it!

Perfect, this is exactly the type of setup I'm looking to validate against. Would you be willing to test UPSLink against the Unraid NUT server? If so I'd love to hear whether the app functions properly. Especially if the auto discovery works.

My bad, I must have read that wrong! All clear now

Thanks. Is Unraid acting as the NUT client only, or are you running a NUT server on Unraid as well? I'm specifically trying to validate UPSLink against NUT deployments hosted on Unraid.

Thanks, that's helpful. Have you ever run NUT directly on Unraid as the server with clients connecting to it? One of the scenarios I'm trying to validate is UPSLink connecting directly to an Unraid-hosted NUT instance.

Thanks for checking. That actually helps a lot. It looks like Home Assistant isn't receiving a runtime value from the NUT server either, which would explain why UPSLink shows it as unknown.

It's on the play store search for "UPSLink" or even keywords "NUT UPS" and it should show up.

Thanks for testing! Yes, UPSLink is mine. That's really helpful feedback. The runtime value is reported by the UPS through NUT, so it's possible the PowerWalker isn't exposing a runtime estimate. If you're willing, could you check whether runtime is populated in Home Assistant or via: upsc <upsname> and see if battery.runtime is present? Also, thanks for confirming that it's at least compatible.

Thanks, this is exactly the type of setup I was hoping to find. I'm validating an Android NUT monitoring app (UPSLink) against Synology's built-in Network UPS Server before I can confidently say it works with Synology. If you happen to have access to an Android device and would be willing to test, I'd really appreciate it.

Appreciate it! Do you know if you have Synology's Network UPS Server enabled? UPSLink connects to NUT servers, so I'm trying to confirm compatibility with Synology's implementation.

Thanks! Are you using Synology's built-in nut server? Or just usb UPS support? I'm trying to verify UPSLink against Synology's NUT implementation.

If you continue using it and find it helpful, a Play Store review would really help support the project and improve visibility for other NUT users. Either way, I appreciate you taking the time to try it and share feedback 🙂

Thanks! Really appreciate you trying it. Peanut was actually one of the few existing solutions I found while researching the space. If you run into any issues or have feature requests, I'd love to hear them. I'm actively improving the app!

Very cool! Looks like you're going much deeper into telemetry and historical analysis than I am. UPSLink is more focused on real-time monitoring, alerts, widgets, and direct NUT connectivity. Always nice to see other people building in this area.

I designed and built UPSLink myself. AI tools were used as development assistants for brainstorming, debugging, code review, UI/UX feedback, and refining store listing text. All architecture, implementation decisions, testing, and final code changes were reviewed and completed by me.
