The next step is to start the UPS service:
{{Code|
sudo upsdrvctl start
sudo service ups-monitor stop
sudo service ups-monitor start
At this point, you should see something like this in your terminal:
Starting UPS driver controller: [ OK ]
Starting upsd: [ OK ]
Starting UPS monitor (master): [ OK ]
If you do not, it may be because upsdrvctl refuses to cooperate at first. A reboot will should fix that problem. The final step is to make sure that the UPS services start when the server does. For that, the /etc/rc.local file must be edited as follows:{{Code|Code=vi /etc/rc.local}} {{Text|Text=echo "Starting UPS driver, daemon, and monitor."/sbin/upsdrvctl start/sbin/upsd/sbin/upsmon}}
