No, sorry, I didn't mean to change ups.conf - I meant that if the UPS name
is listed as "[serverups]", you should run "upsc serverups"
at the command line, rather than "upsc apc".

I'd recommend the following ups.conf:

####################
[serverups]
   driver = usbhid-ups
   port = auto
   desc = "Server UPS"
####################

Newest version for your distribution (but NUT 2.6.4 was released in 2012). It
might not be necessary to upgrade, but I only meant that I can't remember
the specific things in upsdrvctl that were fixed over that time period, and it
would probably be simpler to reboot than to look them up.
