UPSUTIL: Command >
The second example shows the result of performing a CONFIG command on a system on which there are no

devices have not been configured correctly. Revise the system I/O configuration according to the procedures
given in the Performing System Management Tasks manual for configuring UPS devices, then reboot the

UPS Monitor configuration file, specified by the user in the NEWCONFIG command. (The NEWCONFIG
command executor prompts the user to enter the file name of the desired new UPS Monitor configuration
file.)
A UPS Monitor configuration file is a simple ASCII line-oriented text file that the user can create with a text

configuration file permits only one kind of UPS Monitor configuration option to be set: namely, the option to
have the UPS Monitor’s “** RECOVERY FROM POWERFAIL **” messages either routed to the system
console and to all logged-on user terminals, or to have those messages sent only to the system console, and not
