[Bug 221737] Re: upsd doesn't start on system startup

[Arnaud Quette]

moot point guys.
NUT can be a network master (same for standalone boxes), requiring
driver+upsd+upsmon, or a net slave requiring only upsmon.
So if there was a component to be started in all cases, that would be upsmon.
but this is void, and it would simply fail if there is no upsd running
and no suitable config.
the same would go for upsd, if there is no ups.conf+upsd.{conf,users}.
And running only driver+upsd in the best case doesn't protect you:
here you need upsmon.

QED

now if you're really looking for something that works without config
(TM), look there and support this for HH+1:
