I live in Thailand and contacted a couple of UPS suppliers here, I gave them the power requirements that I have for my FreeNas 9.3 server.
I received a response from one of them and they recommended a Eaton 5L 1000TH UPS.
The first thing that I did was check for compatible drivers listed under the UPS pull down in FreeNas. There are about 30 or so different drivers for Eaton UPS's however none of them have the 5L series listed.
I have copied all of the drivers listed and have sent the list and query to Eaton but no reply.
I did notice that the technical specifications show that the 5L comes with a driver called (UPS Winpower driver). If all fails is it possible to some how have this driver installed into FreeNas so that the server will power down automatically when there is a power failure.
Power is an issue here so all of my computers are installed with a UPS.
I would greatly appreciate comments form users.
