I am experiencing the same kind of disconnects, stale data on Eaton brand UPS (Nova AVR). It keeps doing it probably due to Windows to detect it as a new hardware, until Eaton software is installed. With Eaton Linux IPP http://pqsoftware.eaton.com/explore/eng/ipp/default.htm?lang=en this does not happen. Think what? It disables it somehow. But as soon as you remove this proprietary driver, its back again.

Just wanted to let you know, you may try vendor provided driver, if there is any...

Charles,
  So I installed a minimal CentOS 6.5 installation on the Fedora box this
morning and I got the same issue.

Below are the kernel versions used.

CentOS 6.5 Minimal -

As mentioned earlier I have tried another USB port and cable. Below are the
/var/log/messages - I also got a new behavior this time.

These machines are exact replicas of each other and are fairly old and have
a Core 2 Duo E8400 CPU in them. Is there anything else you need or anything
I can do to help fix this? Thanks!

Soon as I get back to that computer I will let you know which kernel
version. Both were just recently installed, Fedora was installed
specifically for this actually, though updates have been applied.

I've tried it with other USB ports already across 5 different machines.
I've also swapped out the USB cable for another one that I knew worked fine.

I'll see what I can do about installing a minimal build onto these
machines to see if something changes.

Thanks!

So I was wondering does NUT do anything which would cause the USB to
disconnect?

Not intentionally, no. The reconnection code is meant to clean up after
these disconnection events, but it is something that isn't expected all
that frequently.

I didn't think so and I couldn't find anything yet it's quite possible
I missed it. I've tested this with CentOS 6.5 and Fedora 20. With CentOS we
were using nut-client-2.6.5-2.el16.x86_64 and nut-2.6.5-2.el6.x86_64. With
Fedora we were using nut-2.7.2-1.fc20.x86_64 and
nut-client-2.7.2-1.fc20.x86_64.

What kernel versions?

We have had a number of recent reports of issues with USB 3.0 host
controllers. While it seems like your UPS is getting picked up by the
uhci_hcd driver, you might want to check if another USB port works better.
Also, make sure you are using a decent-quality cable (no passive USB
extenders, etc.).

I am also slightly suspicious of mtp-probe. We haven't done any testing
with other programs trying to access the UPS at the same time, but there is
some code in NUT to try and catch two NUT drivers from tripping over each
other. But it only shows up in the Fedora output, and its messages seem
closer to when the device is attached, rather than when it disconnects. I'm
not sure if Fedora or CentOS have "server" builds, but I would recommend
starting from the minimum software necessary and building up.
