https://blog.tyk.nu/blog/going-nuts-using-a-ups-on-freebsd/ provides a good overview of NUT components (as of v2.7.4 release), and some smart tricks for shutdown and alerting setup on FreeBSD.
Welcome to the Network UPS Tools (NUT) project Wiki, and feel free to contribute tricks and insights.
While there are several good entries in the menu, ones referenced most frequently in issue discussions include:
- Building NUT for in-place upgrades or non-disruptive tests
- Technicalities: Customizing (NUT) config files and scripts delivered by packaging
- Links to distribution packaging recipes and repository sections
- Troubleshooting
upsdrvctldrivers not starting ("insufficient permissions on everything") possibly due to nut-driver-enumerator (NDE) services having been there before you with NUT 2.8.x - Changing NUT daemon debug verbosity
- Building NUT integration for Home Assistant
- Running NUT in an LXC container
- Troubleshooting eventual disconnections (Data stale) and CyberPower Systems (CPS) know-how
- NUT for Windows
- NUT HCL and DDL
- Code contributions, PRs, PGP and DCO
Also keep in mind the documentation links from NUT website and the FAQ in particular.
