Interesting. I didn’t check the version, just downloaded the version using yum. 
It seems like the driver I’m using is probably older than my UPS then and it’s 
not supported in that driver. How do I download a newer version using yum? Or 
do I have to compile it myself to get 2.7.4?

Given how driver says it has version 2.7.2, I have doubts about it being the 
"latest version" (latest official release 2.7.4 is about 5 years old now, 
cleaning up codebase for 2.7.5).

Among things recently fixed in master branch, "Invalid mibs" may have meant no 
response to queries for OID - whether because device did not support that OID 
in its MIB, or did not recognize auth, or otherwise ignored the request (UDP is 
best-effort and does not help differentiate).

Can't quickly say what could be wrong in that aged version, but I was recently 
told some APC devices might not handle the standard (fallback) IETF MIB, so 
maybe that build of the driver and the UPS indeed have nothing common to talk 
about.

A few days ago I configured Network UPS Tools in a Ubuntu VM on a XCP-NG VM. 
The driver installed flawlessly, and I was able to scan and find the UPS using 
nut-scanner -S -s 192.168.0.1 -e 192.168.0.254

It returned the UPS configuration below from the network, and I configured 
ups.conf without a hitch. Because I want to send the shutdown command to my 
UPS, I need my NUT master installed in dom0, and I’m not trying to configure 
NUT inside of dom0 in XCP-NG host, and I’m having difficulty.

[MILLRACKUPS01]
        driver = "snmp-ups"
        port = "192.168.0.32"
        desc = "Smart-UPS X 2000"
        mibs = "apcc"
        community = "public"

On my Dell R740, I installed the following in dom0

yum install nut --enablerepo=epel,base,updates

When I run nut-scanner without parameters, it returns the two PSUs in the 
server (below)

[nutdev1]
        driver = "nut-ipmipsu"
        port = "id1"
[nutdev2]
        driver = "nut-ipmipsu"
        port = "id2"

When I run nut-scanner to find the SNMP UPS, it returns nothing

[23:04 milsrv01 ups]# nut-scanner -S -s 192.168.0.1 -e 192.168.0.254
Cannot load XML library (libneon.so.27) : file not found. XML search disabled.
Scanning SNMP bus.

If I go ahead and configure ups.conf using the previously good config that 
worked in the Ubuntu VM, I get unknown mibs value: apcc

If you're not a NUT core developer, chances are that you're told to enable 
debugging
to see why a driver isn't working for you. We're sorry for the confusion, but 
this is
the 'upsdrvctl' wrapper, not the driver you're interested in.

Below you'll find one or more lines starting with 'exec:' followed by an 
absolute
path to the driver binary and some command line option. This is what the driver
starts and you need to copy and paste that line and append the debug flags to 
that
line (less the 'exec:' prefix).
