We also don't have a lot of information on the APC CS650 specifically. There is a DDL entry for the Back-UPS CS 650IE, which may be similar; however, we don't have much information on whether the various options work as expected: http://buildbot.networkupstools.org/~buildbot/cayman/docs/latest/ddl/APC/Back-UPS_CS_650IE.html Does your serial number or firmware version look similar, or completely different? Also, after you set offdelay, is there a corresponding timer variable in the 'upsc' output? It is possible that the CS650 is using a different HID path for that timer (there are at least three in drivers/apc-hid.c). > and here comes in my problem, whenever the battery.low condition or the > upssched script calls the FSD action, everything will beging to shut down > normally, except that the UPS will turn off the load in about 100 seconds > (while the ESXi host still needs over a minute to shutdown and the VM has not > yet called the poweroff flag). > I am at a bit of a loss what I could even try here, the only method that > seems to signal the ESXi host running the NUT slave service seems to be > calling the fsd action, the offdelay settings do nothing, I tried running a > shutdown.stop command which didn't do anything either.
