Duo V2 : Remote UPS monitoring:sorted v.5.3.7
edit - **sorted in raidiator 5.3.7**
I've had a quick search on the forums and drew a blank...but in the true tradition of the older models;
Please can we have the ability for the Duo V2 to monitor the UPS status from another Readynas?
I was somewhat taken surprised this feature had been removed from these newer models, and they have been out a fair few months now.

- rnas_newbieAspirantthanks mdgm, but we know the reality, we could wait forever for an add-on. As no statement has been forthcoming if this will be included in future firmware release? As there seems to be no roadmap, as this was a step backwards as the old Duo's & NV+'s could handle a ups on the x86 line.
I'll read up to see if a cron job is possible(?) but this is the first time I've been near Linux command line, i may be barking up the wrong tree, but I'm pleased Ludo has put me on the right path to help me investigate further.
i'll manually start the daemon for now to play safe and I'm sure later today when i read up all will be fine. - rnas_newbieAspiranti've got a feeling i'm going to have to look at the add-on section in more detail to see if it's possible to do this myself, I've a feeling it's going to be a learning curve & a half. as never touched linux before, i'll see where i get to.
thanks again for everyones input. - pogacsaAspirantwill this UPS monitoring covered by upcoming firmwares?
(Can I see the UPS status atteched to duo v2 by my old v1? That would be a workaround for me?)
thx - mdgm-ntgrNETGEAR Employee RetiredI'm still asking for this to be added.
Neither sharing a UPS from the v2 to a v1 or sharing a UPS from the v1 to the v2 is supported at this time. Hopefully support for both is added to the v2 in a future update. Support is already there on the v1 side. - rnas_newbieAspirantsuperb, firmware v 5.3.7 has added remote UPS monitoring functionality - thanks guys :thumbsup:
- EaglehawkApprentice*CHEERS*
Although, I needed to hard refresh my browser to pick up the new settings that are now visible under Power. - mdgm-ntgrNETGEAR Employee RetiredYes I've been waiting for this too :thumbsup:
Hopefully they'll add some more missing features in future releases.
We can keep on asking. - readynasdu0AspirantDitto - a nice surprise.
Although ctrl+f5 to see the new features.
