The man page for upsmon.conf explains the HOSTSYNC directive:
HOSTSYNC seconds
upsmon will wait up to this many seconds in master mode for the
slaves to disconnect during a shutdown situation. By default, this is
15 seconds.
When a UPS goes critical (on battery + low battery, or "FSD": forced
shutdown), the slaves are supposed to disconnect and shut down right away.
The HOSTSYNC timer keeps the master upsmon from sitting there forever
if one of the slaves gets stuck.
The explanation is clear. but the name "HOSTSYNC" is not. It seems to me that
if the directive is to provide a maximum time that the primary should wait for
secondaries to shut down, then it would be better if it were called MAXWAITTIME.
Good call IMO.
