NUT Package (2.8.1 and above)
-
@michmoor said in NUT Package (2.8.1 and above):
Whenever an interface changes state, all packages are restarted. Expected, not particular to PPPoE.
Why does this happen? Why does it need to happen? Seems extremely disruptive for benign events
It is required because pfSense does not have a view into what happens inside a package. Using NUT as an example, pfSense itself has no idea if NUT is using a remote connection, or what interface it may depend upon. Similar situations exist for all packages.
Package restart is the only current way to address this.

@dennypage I might since I have no idea if I need any extra arguments.
UPS is a CyberPower BR1200ELCD
Here is a screenshot of current config:

I have some Asustor NASes and due to their network ups default/unchangeable config UPS Name/username/password has to remain like this to keep it visible for them. -
@rarlup does it happen when you restart nut by itself? Or only when the automates restart happens?
What ups messages to you see in the system logs?

@dennypage
When restarting the service it goes from

to

directly.
Please find below all relevant logs but the last PPPoE down event was at 00:48 ish(not really last one, unplugged it a few minutes ago to replicate the issue but the UPS Status didn't change)
But these lines stands out:
Feb 14 12:29:24 upsmon 29260 UPS asustor on battery
...
Feb 14 12:29:44 upsmon 35718 UPS asustor on battery
...
Feb 16 00:49:20 upsmon 58827 UPS asustor on battery
And yes, I did find everything powered off couple of days ago when there was another wan down event. Today was the 2nd time.
And I'm 100% sure the AC power was never lost during this timeframe (have other UPSes in the house and all the buzzer sounds is enough to wake up anyone).Older logs (part 1):

Way back, I thought the following : interfaces that are physically connected can go down, but there 's one that actually doesn't get downed ... the local host : 127.0.0.1.
And guess what :
The NUT service always listens to 127.0.0.1 and every other interface you specify.
Like :
🔒 Log in to viewSo, me thinking being smart (and probably also seeing this proposed in the documentation ) :
I added a NAT rule on my LAN for the devices that want to connect to NUT on pfSense :But no, NUT still get restarted upon any interface event. The fact that it uses only the internal 127.0.0.1 doesn't matter ...
I was able to exclude NUT from restarting, but this needed some pfSense script editing ....
Anyway, for me, interfaces going down is a very rare event (ditched pppoe years ago as it was a meant to be used with modems and stuff like that, and these will be phased out anyway) as my main switches and ISP router are also UPS fed. -
@Gertjan - kinda smart thinking but since it's an OR between interfaces it was indeed pointless...
I'm not happy with PPPoE either but that is all my ISP can provide. Can't complain however $8.5 for 1G down/0.5G up bandwidth and no cap on any traffic is great value compared to others. -

@rarlup Sorry for the delayed response -- I've been traveling.
Couple of things I noticed looking at your logs. First, you have a lot of pogo. I assume that this is from your WAN connection, but I can't tell without more logs. I would definitely check to see if there are other sources of restart occurring, such as a local client plugged directly into a port on the firewall.
Secondly, I note that it is taking quite a long time for your UPS driver to start. As an experiment, you might remove the ampersand from the start of upsdrvctl in /usr/local/etc/rc.d/nut.sh and see if that helps the startup.
As to the shutdown, I'm guessing that you may have had a brief power outage just before your WAN reset. If NUT looses connection with the UPS, and the last known state was on battery, the default behavior of NUT is to initiate a shutdown.

Will try later today/tmr. Currently under business hours.
@dennypage said in NUT Package (2.8.1 and above):
As to the shutdown
Devices (mostly Asustor NASes, as I mentioned before) are scheduled to gracefully shutdown 5min after the On Battery event (without a corresponding On A/C event). The thing is it didn't lose the connection with the UPS it just showed On Battery after WAN down event and stayed with that status. I'm 100% convinced there was no power outage since there was no relay click (comes instantly, talking few milliseconds) and as I was standing right by it.
Why was I standing right by it?
Because I was the one that cut(literally) the wan cable. This may have caused a few ms short - I do agree it may have caused pfSense to do weird things.
I cut it since the wiring was damaged and I wanted to redo the connection. Previously, just breathing near the cable could cause a WAN down event so this may be the actual cause - faulty wiring on one of the pfSense interfaces can/will cause weird UPS status? -

Removed the &
/usr/local/sbin/upsdrvctl start &/usr/local/sbin/upsdrvctl startAnd restarted the service.
Seems like it helped - no more poll ups failures and connections being refused.

@rarlup said in NUT Package (2.8.1 and above):

A faulty network cable, WAN, LAN, whatever, will cause system network event. One of the effects will be that that interface is taken down (and/or up if the connections returns).
Software that is bound (uses) to a (any !) interface will get restarted, even if that interface wasn't the one triggering the event.
Instead of a weird behavior, look at the logs again : it gets stopped, and restarted again.
The monitoring process will re open the USB port, if that's your UPS connection, re contact the UPS, signal the obtained stated to the local NUT process, etc.
Even the localhost or 127.0.0.1 is no exception, it's probably not the interface that can be taken down by a bad cable, as it has no cable ^^ but processes using it will also get restarted. -

Yes, this could be the cause of the pogo.

A common mistake people make is to directly connect a PC or Mac to a port on pfSense rather than through a switch. The frequent sleep/wake cycles of these systems, which bring link down/up on their ports, wreak havoc on the pfSense.

Yeah ... big +1 that one.
No excuse if they have an UPS : the upstream ISP device (router, modem, powered ONT, whatever, pfSense itself, and all the LAN attached switch(es) should be powered by the same - or linked - UPS.
This solves a load of potential pitfalls.

@dennypage
Not the case - that pfsense box has 9 interfaces (5 rj45 and 4 sfp+)
0 - wan pppoe
1 - another pfsense box
2 - not used yet
3 - not used
4 - switch A0 - lacp to switch B
1 - lacp to switch B

So WAN glitched, triggered package restart and somehow it detected the UPS as on battery before losing connection to it?
-
@rarlup said in NUT Package (2.8.1 and above):

If that state was known at the moment, then it is because NUT got that state from the UPS.
An UPS on battery, yeah, something has glitched - and the WAN agrees ^^ -
I see and it makes sense. Thank you both!
Looking to purchase a few more UPSes - any particular model that is 100% compatible with NUT and you can truly recommend?
min 700VA, cheap (<$200) and rack mountable would be ideal -

NUT is compatible with a wide variety of UPSs. That said, some UPSs have more quirks than others.
Specific recommendations are difficult, but I would generally stay with usb-hid capable units from one of the big manufacturers such as APC, Cyber Power or Tripp Lite.
My personal preference is for APC, but they tend to be a bit more expensive.
