Just bought a UPS for my nodes and server. The one I got can send a graceful shutdown signal to my devices in the event of a sustained power outage via a 3rd party software (for Linux). Is this worth using or is it a significant attack surface?

Could you provide a link to the one you got I am looking to purchase one
Yes, I'll provide a link but please DYOR, because I only watched 2 YouTube videos for research before buying.
CyberPower GX1500U
Might try https://networkupstools.org instead of running a vendor's software. It's surely packaged for your distribution. I have no experience with your UPS.
Thanks, I like that idea better. Will look into it.
