No other scripts in my setup. It is a graceful shutdown including all VMs.
Client performs action based on server configuration.
My server is NUT service inside TrueNAS VM. It is configured to shutdown after N minutes of ONBATT state.

If communication is lost NUT should spam you with e-mails until it is fixed, but there must be a valid account configured for each system's e-mail MTA (e.g. postfix)
