[Nut-upsuser] Running script right before primary shuts down

Dear all,
I would like to gracefully shut down my router (Unifi Dream Router (UDR))
after my secondary has shut off, and before my primary shuts off (or in any
case, before the UPS powers down). Unfortunately, the router doesn't seem
to support NUT, but I've written a bash script, with which I can shut it
down as user *nut*, running command *sudo -H -u nut bash -c 'bash
/var/lib/nut/NUT-scripts/shutdownrouter.sh'*). (I assume that if any script
is to be run, it would be run as user *nut*.)
But now I'm trying to figure out how to call it, and I'm not sure...
- I assume in *upsmon.conf* there should be a line *NOTIFYFLAG FSD
SYSLOG+WALL+EXEC*)
But then I wondered whether *FSD* was maybe too late a flag?
- Then I assume *upssched.conf* plays a role. This is the current setup:
CMDSCRIPT /etc/nut/upssched-cmd.sh
PIPEFN /etc/nut/upssched.pipe
LOCKFN /etc/nut/upssched.lock
AT ONBATT * START-TIMER shutdown_timer 1200
AT ONLINE * CANCEL-TIMER shutdown_timer
AT LOWBATT * EXECUTE immediate_shutdown
AT COMMBAD * START-TIMER commbad_timer 1200
AT COMMOK * CANCEL-TIMER commbad_timer
AT NOCOMM * EXECUTE commbad_shutdown
AT SHUTDOWN * EXECUTE powerdown
- Then I assume *upssched-cmd.sh* plays a role. This is the current
setup:
#!/bin/sh
case $1 in
shutdown_timer)
logger -t upssched-cmd "UPS running on battery for too long,
initiating shutdown"
/usr/sbin/upsmon -c fsd
;;
immediate_shutdown)
logger -t upssched-cmd "UPS on battery critical, forced shutdown"
/usr/sbin/upsmon -c fsd
;;
commbad_timer)
logger -t upssched-cmd "UPS communication failure persists,
initiating shutdown"
/usr/sbin/upsmon -c fsd
;;
commbad_shutdown)
logger -t upssched-cmd "UPS communication failed, initiating
shutdown"
/usr/sbin/upsmon -c fsd
;;
powerdown)
logger -t upssched-cmd "Executing powerdown command"
;;
*)
logger -t upssched-cmd "Unrecognized command: $1"
;;
esac
Where should I squeeze in */var/lib/nut/NUT-scripts/**shutdownrouter.*sh?
Thanks for anyone's help!
Kind regards,
Erik
