Why is the UPS display <ups_name>@<ups_name>?

[pdc1]

For example:

Am I missing something in my config? I would expect the display to be <ups_name>@<address>.

For example, I have

[upsd.router]
address = "raspi4"
[...]

And instead of router@raspi4 the view is router@router, which seems kind of redundant redundant 😉

It uses section name rather than address itself.

[upsd.raspi4]
address = "raspi4"

inline table version

[upsd]
raspi4 = {
   address = "raspi4"
}

Oooohhhh, for some reason I assumed the section name was the UPS name, not the server name!

Given that, is there a way to name the UPS? Or does it just pick up the name from upsd?

Note to self: restart the docker container after changing the config.toml 🙄

Using server name as the section solved my problem, thanks!

Glad I could help.

It uses reported names from upsd. There’s no name aliasing option for individual ups.

Thanks! I have tried the other NUT monitors, but yours has the best combination of (very!) low footprint and UI functionality.
