Hi,
Does anyone know if there is something in Proxmox that would prevent NUT from work correctly?
I've got a set of config files i usually drop onto systems, that i adjust slightly dependent on needs, but for some reason they just do not want to work with Proxmox systems.

I do get the note in the log about the system now being on battery power, but then it literally does nothing.
So the systems are definitely able to see the state changes from the system hosting the UPS.
There's also nothing untoward in the log for service nut-monitor statusother than a "Could not find PID file to see if previous upsmon instance is already running!" note

To be clear on my objective - each system shuts down on a different % level.

If anyone can shed some light on what's going on, it would be much appreciated.

Thanks!

Below are my current nut configs, for reference -

nut.conf
Code:
MODE=netclient

ups.conf - note, set at 90 for testing purposes
Code:
battery.charge.low = 90

upsmon.conf - note, FINALDELAY set to 5 for testing
Code:
