/usr/local/share/doc/nut/shutdown.txt Subsection "How you set it up", item #2 : 2. Edit your shutdown scripts to check for the POWERDOWNFLAG so they know when to power off the UPS. You must check for this file, as you don't want this to happen during normal shutdowns! You can use upsdrvctl to start the shutdown process in your UPS hardware. Use this script as an example, but change the paths to suit your system: if (test -f /etc/killpower) then echo "Killing the power, bye!" /usr/local/ups/bin/upsdrvctl shutdown sleep 120 # uh oh... the UPS poweroff failed! # you probably should reboot here to avoid getting stuck # *** see the section on power races below *** fi (There is more.....) In talking to the people on the NUT list, no one mentioned that it was called from upsd.
