Hello All,
For the last few days I have been trying to get stonith working with the APC 7900 PDU with very little success. My hope
is that someone out there with more experience in this matter can help.
So here is the problem. It seems that apc stonith support for both telnet and snmp was coded for an older version of
the apc firmware. The current version of stonith is unable to communicate with the APC.
I have tried both the stonith version that was released with heartbeat 1.2 and
2.09 with the same result.
here is debug session using 2.x and telent
hasrv2:~ # stonith -d 1 -t apcmaster -p "192.168.0.42 apc apc" -l

The older version of stonith is able to login but since the CLI command structure has changed the program is unable to
query the device names.
Similar results are obtained with snmp.
Here is the output form the 2.x version

looking at the source code for the stonith apc snmp plugin I see that the OIDs
are defined as follows
#define OID_IDENT ".1.3.6.1.4.1.318.1.1.4.1.4.0"
#define OID_NUM_OUTLETS ".1.3.6.1.4.1.318.1.1.4.4.1.0"
#define OID_OUTLET_NAMES ".1.3.6.1.4.1.318.1.1.4.5.2.1.3.%i"
#define OID_OUTLET_STATE ".1.3.6.1.4.1.318.1.1.4.4.2.1.3.%i"
#define OID_OUTLET_COMMAND_PENDING ".1.3.6.1.4.1.318.1.1.4.4.2.1.2.%i"
#define OID_OUTLET_REBOOT_DURATION ".1.3.6.1.4.1.318.1.1.4.5.2.1.5.%i"
An smnpwalk shows that the OIDs in the new firmware do not match these. They
are not even close.

I tried downloading and installing the oldest version of the AP7900 firmware I could find at www.apc.com but this still
did not work.
So the question is.... has any one been able to figure out how to make stonith work with newer version of the APC AP7900
PDUs?
or should we just give up, return the APC and purchase a Baytech?
Any help on this matter is greatly appreciated.
Thanks,
