Selfhosted
A place to share alternatives to popular online services that can be self-hosted without giving up privacy or locking you into a service you don't control.
Rules:
-
Be civil: we're here to support and learn from one another. Insults won't be tolerated. Flame wars are frowned upon.
-
No spam posting.
-
Posts have to be centered around self-hosting. There are other communities for discussing hardware or home computing. If it's not obvious why your post topic revolves around selfhosting, please include details to make it clear.
-
Don't duplicate the full text of your blog or github here. Just post the link for folks to click.
-
Submission headline should match the article title (don’t cherry-pick information from the title to fit your agenda).
-
No trolling.

Typically you'd have a server running on a device on each UPS, and the clients would be the other devices also plugged into that UPS, so when that UPS is low, everything plugged into it will turn off. If you have another UPS elsewhere in the house, you would have another server installed on a device there so it can monitor that UPS that it is plugged into, and tell the other devices also plugged into that other UPS to shut down. Without knowing the layout you are running though, there's no way to know if NUT is what you need or want.
So in your case it would likely be to plug your server and nas both into the same UPS, and when the server detects the UPS is low battery, it will tell the NAS to shut down. This would also require the switches/router/whatever to also be on a UPS to hold power of course. So then it basically becomes each little cluster of devices that need UPS would also have a switch nearby that is also on the UPS
