Yeah, I've thought the same thing when I was looking something for
about 40 servers earlier this year. I didn't look into nut in depth,
though, and chances are it'll do what I want based on what I've seen
here (I dont -really- have any ordering requirements across servers
when shutting down, beyond the obvious PDC, file servers).

A centralised UPS shutdown manager with ordering and constraints
sounds like the job for a quick Python project :)
