Hello,
To manage the cluster with my new Eaton Ellipse Pro UPS, after installing the NUT server on each node, is it possible to add a USB hub to the Eaton UPS and connect all three of my nodes to the USB hub using USB cables?
Thx
 
Hi,

Typical USB hub allows connecting multiple devices to one host. Not one device to multiple hosts. For your use case you'd have to use USB-over-IP solution. It's a kind of USB hub that has ethernet port and can inject the usb device into any host over IP. Please google for Digi Anywhere USB.

But I think you can connect the device just to one virtual machine at once. So you should setup a highly available machine for NUT server.
