Yes, I used it and it is working but for the GUI you need a windows
mašine from where you connect to the agent and make additional
configuration. But I have changed to NUT which is a very good tool and
work great to and there is small GUI too (very small) but configuration
is trivial and you don't need to be concearned on how long should UPS
stay on battery to commence shutdown - when it hits "low battery" value
thje shutdown start.
