I don't have a killall command, so I look at htop to find the
usbhid-ups process.
I see one from nut, sure:

    Being that there are no USB or HID devices attached to the
machine, is it safe to assume that this is the only process using
usbhid-ups already?

In any case, I just checked syslog & there's no more of the
message that there was the other day.
Also when I connect a local terminal, it's ok.

I don't know what changed between now and then, but it seems to
have resolved itself.

Thanks nonetheless.

  I don't follow what you're saying, but here's the output of
  the
  requested command.

# ps -elf | grep usbhid-ups

  1 S nut       1508     1  0  80   0 -  4159 -      00:45 ?

  00:00:00 grep usbhid-ups

  ok, this is confirmed: you have 4 times the usbhid-ups driver
  running, instead of only *1*
  please kill all usbhid-ups instances (for example using
  "killall usbhid-ups" as root), then launch the only instance
  you want to see running, using "upsdrvctl start cyberpower"
  (still as root).
  then check if you syslog is still spammed.
  cheers,
  Arnaud
