Comment on UPS monitor/shutdown service
stoicmaverick@lemmy.world 59 minutes agoI was hoping to setup a server and clients to shutdown the other Raspberry Pis and such, scattered around the house if the main server senses a power failure.
Also, I had an issue where it insisted on triggering a shutdown the SECOND the UPS triggered, even if it came right back. I might take another swing at it at some point, but I liked the look of that PVE-UPS things.

On clients you mostly have to set
MODE=netclientin thenut.confand modify theupsmon.confaccording to the manual and detailed manual. By default, it should only shutdown systems when reaching a “low battery” situation, not immediately when switching to battery power.
