in the apc software(or nut worst case) you'll be able to specify that after x minutes it will shutdown. Better to have a clean shutdown and have to hit the power button than a dirty one and risk corrupting your filesystem.
Unfortunately I won't be there to "hit the power button". If I were there would be no need for UPS.
Another approach is to buy a remote power switch. With it, basically you can remotely "power cycle" the server :) It will solve any hang problem just as if you are there :)
