Hi,  
I would like to store the metrics of my UPS (managed by [https://networkupstools.org](https://networkupstools.org)) in ES. There is a client "upsc" with the following output, which should be easily parsable:

battery.capacity: 9.00  
battery.charge: 100  
battery.charge.low: 20  
battery.charge.restart: 5  
battery.charger.status: resting  
battery.energysave: no  
battery.energysave.delay: 300  
battery.energysave.load: 10  
battery.protection: yes  
battery.runtime: 3291  
battery.type: PbAc  
battery.voltage: 39.2  
battery.voltage.nominal: 36

input.voltage.extended: no  
input.voltage.nominal: 230  
outlet.1.autoswitch.charge.low: 50  
outlet.1.delay.shutdown: 1800  
outlet.1.delay.start: 180  
outlet.1.desc: PowerShare Outlet 1  
outlet.1.id: 1  
outlet.1.status: on  
outlet.1.switchable: yes  
outlet.2.autoswitch.charge.low: 95  
outlet.2.delay.shutdown: 65535  
outlet.2.delay.start: 0  
outlet.2.desc: PowerShare Outlet 2

ups.load: 13  
ups.load.high: 90  
ups.mfr: EATON  
ups.model: 5P 1550  
ups.power: 186  
ups.power.nominal: 1550  
ups.productid: ffff  
ups.realpower: 132  
ups.realpower.nominal: 1100  
ups.serial: XXXXXX  
ups.shutdown: enabled  
ups.start.auto: yes  
ups.start.battery: yes

ups.test.result: Done and passed  
ups.timer.shutdown: 0  
ups.timer.start: 0  
ups.type: offline / line interactive  
ups.vendorid: 0463

There are also several client access libraries. Is there any easy way to store these metrics in ES?  
I could also imagine to parse the output with logstash - any thoughts?

Thanks for all input,  
Lorenz

Hi @lolli78, thanks for posting! I don't think this is a metricbeat question, it belongs to elasticsearch or logstash. I will add the labels to this.
