powershare is more for shutdown sequence than for startup ones.

Moreover, the timers (outlet.X.delay.Y) works the same way as the
ups.delay.Y, so when you set a value, it's processed instantly, ie:

Is there some place where I can set them, where they can be read

that (the general settings, ie battery.charge.low instead of lowbattery
(...) in ups.conf) is part of a long standing feature I want to see in
nut... But as always, the time is lacking...

One of the UPSes is connected to a SUSE box, and the other to a Debian box.

for your kind of need, MGE has a PDU device:

but these are not supported directly by nut (though these support SNMP and
has a web GUI)
