So my thought is to modify the UPS scripts to "almost" shut the
machine down, and then just let the power fail.
I'm not sure how current desktop Macs work, but can't you just adapt
PowerBook/iBook behaviour?
If my iBook's battery goes low it does a force sleep. Even with almost
empty batteries, the state of the machine can be hold for more than a
day until it goes off completely. If you force sleep with a full UPS,
sleeping the machine for several weeks shouldn't be a problem.
Unless the Power Manager is buggy, he should do all the syncing for
you. No need to close files just because power is low. No need to
reboot the machnie at all.
"man pmset" already has some hints about UPS usage.
Cheers,
Markus
