[Nut-upsuser] debian 8 "jessie" nut 2.7.2 slaves not shutting down

[Drew Plaster]

Roger,

The topology is:
	UPS TOPAPC, Data link to master, Power supply to master, slave1 and slave2
	UPS MIDAPC, Data link to master, Power supply to master, slave1 and slave2
	UPS BOTAPC, Data link to master, Power supply to master, slave1 and slave2

Shutdown plan:
When wall power fails for any of the three UPS units, they continue powering the master and the two slaves.  When two of the UPS battery have been depleted and the last (MINSUPPLIES 1) UPS unit reaches the status [OB LB]. the two slaves are shut down, and then the master is shutdown and sends shutdown signal to UPS (#POWERDOWNFLAG /etc/killpower) has been temporarily remarked out in the masters upsmon.conf to test if the slaves would shutdown vai hotsync or deadtime.
Anyway, that is how I was envisioning it functioning with the current config files; I may be mis-understanding something but that is the desired shutdown plan.

I don't know if this helps with anything but if I execute upsmon -c fsd on any of the three systems that system does shutdown but when I execute it on the master system it does not shutdown either of the slave systems.

Just to be sure that I understand your topology:

UPS TOPAPC, Data link to master, Power supply to master UPS MIDAPC, Data link to master, Power supply to slave1 UPS BOTAPC, Data link to master, Power supply to slave2

Shutdown plan:  When wall power fails for any one of the three UPS units, they continue powering the master and the two slaves.  When any one of the three UPS units reaches the status [OB LB]. the two slaves are shut down, and then the master is shutdown.

Is this correct? 
Roger
