[Nut-upsuser] Tripp-lite Omni VS1000

[Barb Smith]

I just used upsdrvctl shutdown.  I don't care if it reboots or not.  I'm  
just concerned about power failure.  Is there another way to check to see  
if this will shutdown when the battery runs low?  Is there anything else I  
need to do?

Thanks
