The 'upsd' server sits between (in your case) the snmp-ups driver and
(usually) upsmon client. The latter will shutdown the system if it sees
that the UPS is both reporting On Battery (OB) and Low Battery (LB) or
when the Force ShutDown (FSD) flag is set. Since drivers should *never*
set the FSD flag directly, your only option here is to make the snmp-ups
driver reports both OB and LB. Any clients attached should respond to this
by shutting down.
