September 18, 20214 yr UPS setting - my rack mount cyber power UPS is "lost communication" I had a power failure and unclear shutdown with errors on restart so I need this working. Does anyone have a cyber power UPS working where unraid will shut down properly?
September 18, 20214 yr ...it will depend on the exact model and connection type (USB, ETHERNET, ...). If it does not work with apcupsd, try the NUT Plugin...check compatibility here: https://networkupstools.org/stable-hcl.html

September 23, 20214 yr Author That's the exact same model I have and when I enable under Settings/UPS settings the "start APC UPS deamon" setting with option USB cable and UPS type "usb" I get "lost communication" error.
September 23, 20214 yr Author I believe it's a USB3 port and I haven't done any specific passthrough for VM but I do have an ubuntu VM setup (but not currently running).
September 23, 20214 yr Author Well this isn't good. I changed my USB cables around to see if it would help and now my server says Unraid OS missing key and all my docker etc are not accessible.

September 23, 20214 yr Unless you have this plugin installed, unplugging the USB key is fatal and will require a restart. Since the USB is no longer mounted at the moment, no configuration changes will be saved, and the array will start a parity check when you restart. As long as you fully stop the array before shutdown, you can safely cancel that check this time.
September 23, 20214 yr Do you have any USB 2.0 ports internally on the motherboard? If so, get one of these.

If so, get one of these. Yes I do have one USB2 header on MB. Unfortunately it's already in use to power my front of case USB ports which are USB2 only. I guess I can try running a cable all the way around to the front of the case - janky. Isn't USB3 backwards compatible - why can't I use an open USB3 port already in place? Appreciate all your help BTW - thank you very much. Edited September 23, 20214 yr by Ystebad new info on case

September 23, 20214 yr Installed NUT, did autodetect (said done but no specific message or sign that it found the UPS) and despite setting Start Network UPS Tools service: YES and apply it says status: stopped. Check the unraid log..not sure if there is a log with the nut plug-in, separately...if so, check there as well. Based on the Info from @Michael_P above and your answer, that you have the same UPS model, I'd gather your above problems with the USB stability still exists and it will not go away, just by installing NUT.Try to solve that first.....then try apcupsd first, not NUT.
