Dear Rene,

The version of my ESXi host is ESXi-7.0U3d-19482537

I am installed actual NutClient-ESXi module and its working fine with the default timers:

After NUT notified the ESXi host of the low battery, it immediately shut down.

I tryed to change the UserVars.NutOnBatteryDelay parameter to 10 seconds and restarted the server:

Everething is fine, NUT client was runned:

And then I started the test.

After 55 seconds ESXi continued to work:

Of course, while I was running the test, all the VMs were down. And I expected the host to shut down immediately after 10 seconds. But it still worked.

Do you think that I missed something? Or this is a bug?

Hi René
I'm French but keep english for all users.
Synology can make an UPS Server but we can't add user and password, just with IP address source.
It's possible to implement a variable to bypass this ?

I can't leave blank user/password, the service not start.

Tk a lot!

Premise:
I have some energy-intensive VMs running on ESXi but they're are not "mission critical".

Request:
It would be nice to programmatically shutdown energy-intensive or non-critical VMs first (maybe in different priority groups) and if energy supply is not resumed, the host is shut down at T - x (margin before batteries are empty)

My ESXi host can take a good few minutes to shut down and I would like to specify a threshold of, say, 40% battery charge level at which I would like to initiate a shutdown.

I used to have the following settings when my TrueNAS was running on the same UPS and I would like to reproduce them with my NutClient on my now ESXi host:

override.battery.charge.low = 40
override.battery.charge.warning = 60

How could the above be achieved?
