At least 85% the same. The main difference is the MIBs. The Mitsubishi MIBS also have more data that I'd like to grab, such as wattage. I still have some touchup to do on the graphs as I mixed a database table in one spot, but it's minor.
How would you suggest the UPS thing does the search? Populate an array with each type of MIB and loop w/ a foreach or similar? I'll look into doing this this week. The job of adding this UPS would have been easier had I modified the UPS files directly, but I wanted to know all of the steps involved in adding a new interface/host type. --falz On 9/11/05, Javier Szyszlican <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > Falz, > > You should have to add records to the tables manually, just use the jffnms gui > to add them, I mean its still manual, but not touching the tables directly. > > How much like the UPS MIB is this new interface type? 90%? 20%? if its more > than > 80% I would suggest to modify the UPS MIB to accomodate this new type of > device. > > Javier > > falz wrote: > > OK, perfect.
