My Eaton UPS 5PX works with their own software (IPP) that they offer a linux .deb version for.
Yes I can use NUT, but there are a few variables like battery voltage, that for some reason are not exposed with NUT.
So I've tried to run their IPP in a docker container (there are a few version floating around on Docker hub), but I can't get the container to see the USB device
I've tried --privilged, I've tried -v /dev/bus/usb:/dev/bus/usb
but the software can't see the UPS.
When I load a windows VM on my Mac and attach the USB port to the VM, it sees the UPS
I'm not sure if having syno's NUT server running would somehow bind the USB port and stop me attaching it to the container ?
