[Nut-upsuser] unclear about expected shutdown behavior

[Spike]

Dear all,

first post here and wanted to start by thanking everybody who made this
possible.

I've been reading the docs and setting up NUT from packages on ubuntu
xenial. I have nut[-client,-server] installed, version 2.7.2-4ubuntu1. My
UPS is an Eaton 5S 1500, which I picked from the list of supported devices.

I've got it working and I can correctly query/monitor the UPS via USB etc.
Following the docs I attempted to test a shutdown process (upsmon -c fsd)
and this is where my question lies: from reading the docs it seems the UPS
should power off, is that the case? The box correctly shuts down, but the
UPS does not and, maybe as a consequence, the box never came back on its
own (I waited a few minutes).

Can anybody shed some light on what I should see as I force the shutdown
sequence? Do you need me to provide more data?

thanks all in advance,

Spike
