APC UPS

[Brettw]

When trying to import the runtime template i get the following error.
Error: XML: Hash version does not exist.

However i can run the oid and get the result below
SNMPv2-SMI::enterprises.318.1.1.1.2.2.3.0 = Timeticks: (216000) 0:36:00.00

Any ideas???

Thanks

Brett

take a look at the hash versions in your config_array.php file.
They should list each version of cacti, and a corresponsing hash
value. I had similar problems after installing thold . The thold
install overwrote my 0.8.6d config_arrays.php file with a
0.8.6c file, leaving the config in an "odd state" .
(if this your case, look for .BAK files hanging around)

Be aware that the config_arrays.php file was not the only
file affected when this happened to me, but the config_arrays.php
file holds the hash versions.

Like you , I observed the problem when installing an APC
template, but found the root cause was the changes I made
BEFORE moving on to the APC template.

Pls state version info if more asst is needed.

Hi,
Can I get any stats from the 9pin connector on the back of my APC 3000?
Or do I need to buy and install a card?
Thanks!

You need some intellegent device. I suggest you acquire a card.

I found this opensource package that does a great job via the serial interface.

I bought a cable from APC for $30 (I've seen clones for $16)
and I'm monitoring via apcuspd and the BB Module: http://www.deadcat.net/viewfile.php?fileid=883

Lit,

I hope you don't mind but I took what you did here and added some additional stuff like input/output frequencies, output load amperes, output load voltage and output load wattage.

I did this specificaly for an APC SU5000RM with an AP9606 card. not sure if the OIDs are the same on other APCs.

This script worked great on my SU1000RM's.

Lit you dit a great job, it is working perfect on a Smart-UPS RT 7500 XL
I added a data template for the Environmental Monitor (external temperature) with the mib I found in another topic (.1.3.6.1.4.1.318.1.1.10.2.3.2.1.4.1 )

Works great Lit! Using it on a bunch of APC SmartUPS 1400RM's without problem.

Hi,

thx a lot for this package man it's working great on my Apc Smart-UPS 1400.

Great work


Is there any solution to create a graph only for the temperature with celcius degrees ? I tried another xml file but I can't make work nut with with my networked apc.

Thanks

I didn't see this in here anywhere and had seen reports of people not being able to calculate battery runtime remaining on the UPS or only being able to do it if the UPS was on battery.

Here's a template for doing this on battery or not.

I'm not sure if this works on any other UPS since I only have SU5000RMs with AP9606 cards.

Not too complicated, poll the UPS with OID 1.3.6.1.4.1.318.1.1.1.2.2.3.0 and then divide the result by 6000.

Does anyone have this for version 0.8.6c?

[ottomatic]

Well I sucked it up and built the template myself. This is for version 0.8.6c

It is possible to receive temperature with APC?
Smart-UPS RT 7500 XL

Should... It should be in the first script posted at the beginning of this post. Otherwise SNMPWALK the device.

I use the syntax of: $ snmpwalk -Cc -c public -v 1 <ip address>

I'm using linux to query my SNMP devices.

[Alives]

can you post the oids you used for this? every time i import none of them are in the data templates.

thanks.

Hello,

I use a APC Card AP9606, did someone has a working experience with these scripts and this card ?

Does something needs to be activated on the card to query other value than IP informations (current, frequency, load, ...) ?

Thanks.
