APC rack pdu stuff

[noskill]

Here's some stuff I've had laying around. They monitor the voltages of APC 7900's/7930's (havent tested others, but they have similar snmp functions, so if they work on other APC devices post a reply

These were created on 0.8.6d

Cool, thanks for posting.

It's an old topic, but I justed wanted to show my appreciation, great template!

First time I imported a template, and I had to click around somewhat, but the result is worth it.

Thanks for the templates, for some reason the OID's didn't import correctly, I assume I found the correct ones by parsing the PowerNet-MIB. I turned up debugging on the cacti log and it seems to be getting data, but my graph is still missing the overload level, hmm?

Code: Select all

pdu01lo, dsname: apc_overload_level, oid: .1.3.6.1.4.1.318.1.1.12.2.2.1.1.4.1, output: 24
pdu01lo, dsname: apc_blah_load, oid: .1.3.6.1.4.1.318.1.1.12.2.3.1.1.2.1, output: 120
pdu01lo, dsname: apc_warning_level, oid: .1.3.6.1.4.1.318.1.1.12.2.2.1.1.3.1, output: 18

Thanks for this, it is working "out of the box" for an AP7832.

I have the same problem ^ in that the overload value is not being read correctly. Otherwise it looks great

Code: Select all

Great template. I got it to work 'out of the box' with the following APC Rack PDU.

AP78300 Rack PDU - 24 Port
AP7801 Rack PDU - 8 Port

We also got the following:

AP7862 - 42 port 3 Phase Rack PDU

but I'm only able to get one of the phases to show up. Has anyone tried this? I'm sort of a newb with all this Cacti stuff so any information would be helpful.

[untaimaishu]

Sorry for the post. I found it under this after a seach on the forums. DUH?

untaimaishu,

How did you get Cacti to show you all the outlets on the PDU. From the templates, I can only get a total AMPS.

Thanks!

[jhoffert]

Sorry, I read the graphs the wrong way, but I'm still curious if there is a way to graph all the ports on the PDU, not just the total PDU AMP Usage.?

[noskill]

No, there isn't a way, at least on 79xx's

[TimothyClarke]

Nice template, just a minor point, for anyone who's using more than a single phase, you'll need to alter the maxium values in the data templates.

They are set to 20 by default

Also it would be nice if the templates showed per phase values

[sscott]

Wish a graph export didn't include all the additional definitions

[zkenton]

has anyone gotten these templates to work with AP7840?

[Setarcos]

Hi Folks,

Here is an updated version that also graphs the low threshold (helpful if you use this feature)

[aboyce]

APC PDUs with recent firmware (3.5.6 in my case) do not apparently provide APC MIB data (.1.3.6.1.4.1.318) via SNMP v1. All that is available are interface stats. I have no idea why, but everything seems to work fine when using V3.

I've tested this with AP7840 & AP7841.
