Server then starts shutting down. Some times its right away sometimes after 4+ minutes.

That is going to be hard to diagnose without the usbhid-ups logs for the time when those commands are sent - can you try to keep the log going while sending them, then note the time when the command was sent? You can use the "tee" command:

/lib/nut/usbhid-ups -DD -a TrippLiteUPS 2>&1 | tee /tmp/log.shutdown.return.txt

(please use gzip before attaching the log - the mailing list does not accept messages over 40kB without manual intervention.)

> I did notice that that return.shutdown was not found in the list running "upscmd -l TrippLiteUPS". I did see "load.off.delay" which also if I give a value of 60 (or any other value) it shuts down in 20sec and stays off either on battery or online. ups does come back on if i replug the ups.

I think the load.off.delay behavior is expected, but I really thought the others should honor the delay variables. Will have to look further.

log trimmed; appears to be the same as before?
