I.8. Changes from 2.6.5 to 2.7.1
-
The apcsmart(8) driver has been replaced by a new implementation. There is a new
parameter, ttymode, which may help if you have a non-standard serial port,
or Windows. In case of issues with this new version, users can revert to
apcsmart-old.
-
The nutdrv_qx(8) driver will eventually supersede blazer_ser and blazer_usb.
Options are not exactly the same, but are documented in the nutdrv_qx man
page.
-
Mozilla NSS support has been added. The OpenSSL configuration options should
be unchanged, but please refer to the upsd.conf(5) and
upsmon.conf(5) documentation in case we missed something.
-
upsrw(8) now prints out the maximum size of variables. Hopefully you
are not parsing the output of upsrw - it would be easier to use one of the
NUT libraries, or implement the network protocol yourself.
