## Projektgeschichte und Nutzung
Network UPS Tools, packaged as `nut`, is the standard open-source toolkit for monitoring and controlling UPSes, PDUs, automatic transfer switches, power supplies, and related power devices through a common protocol and driver/client/server architecture.
### Projektgeschichte
The official NUT release notes trace the project back to Russell Kroll's 1996 APC Smart-UPS experiments, including cron-driven status reports and early protocol tests. Smart UPS Tools 0.10 was publicly released on March 10, 1998; a June 5, 1999 rewrite separated drivers, server, and clients; and the project renamed itself Network UPS Tools with 0.42.0 on October 31, 1999 to reflect multi-vendor support and avoid APC trademark proximity.
### Adoptionsgeschichte
NUT grew from one APC-focused monitor into a cross-vendor power-device layer. The official site said on July 1, 2026 that at least 197 manufacturers and 1,431 device models were known compatible. Its user manual says NUT is pre-packaged for many operating systems, embedded in storage, automation, and virtualization appliances, and often shipped as companion software by UPS vendors.
### Wie es verwendet wird
A normal deployment has device-specific drivers feeding `upsd`, clients such as `upsc` querying status, and `upsmon` coordinating graceful shutdown before battery exhaustion. Package users care about config files such as `ups.conf`, driver startup through `upsdrvctl`, network access control, port 3493, and matching the driver to the exact UPS/PDU hardware. Larger deployments use the network model so multiple hosts powered by one UPS can observe the same state and shut down together.
### Warum Paket-Nerds sich dafür interessieren
NUT is operational plumbing: boring until power fails, then essential. It is packaging-heavy because it touches USB, serial, SNMP, Modbus, OpenSSL, init/service managers, CGI clients, Python/Perl/C/C++ client libraries, device rules, and OS-specific paths. RFC 9271, published in August 2022, documents the UPS management protocol used by the NUT ecosystem and reinforces that the project is more than a single Unix daemon.
