I see this in syslog:
Aug 12 03:57:22 orion upsd[18274]: Data for UPS [a102-apc-10] is stale - check 
driver

(one for each UPS).

Then I see a bunch of messages like this:

Aug 12 03:58:02 orion upsd[18274]: write() failed for ::1: Broken pipe
Aug 12 03:58:02 orion snmpd[2872]: Connection from UDP: [127.0.0.1]:50940

And then it returns to normal like this:

Aug 12 03:58:04 orion upsd[18274]: UPS [a102-apc-10] data is no longer stale

Where else can I look to find out what really happened?

Every log interval, each variable is fetched from the server, and if there is 
an error retrieving that value at that time, "NA" is logged:

https://github.com/networkupstools/nut/blob/master/clients/upslog.c#L203

Since they are all "NA" at the same time, it is likely that there is a 
communication problem, either between upslog and upsd, or between upsd and the 
driver. In either case, there is probably a syslog message describing the 
problem in more detail.
