In that case, I probably don't understand what you're trying to do. > There are some servers that should work as long as possible and > shut down shortly (2 minutes) before the ups shuts off.

So you want the servers to keep running as long as possible and the clients should go down after a power outage of (say) five minutes? That's possible too. > Is it possible with NUT to tell upsd to initiate a shutdown by the > means of upssched? As long as I understood upssched doesn't run as > root. So it can't be used to initiate a shutdown directly. Sure. But if you can describe more clearly what you're trying to do, we might come up with other alternatives as well, as I don't think this is what you want to do.
