Funny, a discussion was raised just recently at https://github.com/networkupstools/nut/issues/3574 where I suggested ePDU's could be the answer for rack-wide shutdown with different priorities for different workloads. Especially the part which is not a common NUT approach, about gracefully handling the power coming back before the critical machines are told to shut down - with some clever scripting, an OB->OL transition and knowledge of the already achieved secodary-ternary-etc. shutdowns could involve telling the ePDU to power-cycle the ports and bring those devices back up.
