approach seems to have good potential to expand into covering more devices
and perhaps platforms. [#2430]
- Introduced `ECO` status concept for "ECO mode" (or "High Efficiency" mode,
or "Energy Saver System"...) as named and defined by hardware vendors.
One common aspect is that this is a balance of electrical efficiency vs.
robust outage protection (which may be overkill for IT equipment whose
PSU can survive several milliseconds on capacitors alone) which can be
selected at run-time. Previously such choice was made at the time of
purchase, with the UPSes only supporting some one protection strategy.
[issue #2495, PR #2637]
* Updated documentation, end-user clients (CGI, NUT-Monitor UI);
* Updated `upsmon` client with ability to report entering and exiting
the ECO mode if reported by the driver;
* Initial implementation for Eaton devices with `usbhid-ups` driver.
- upsmon:
* it was realized that the `POWERDOWNFLAG` must be explicitly set in the
configuration file, there is no built-in default in the binary program
