The instructions you are referring to use check_snmp and have nothing to do with the plugin you are trying to use. I'm not familiar with that plugin, but you should be able to get all the status you want with a single service entry. If you'll give me an example of the command line call, I'll give you an example service and command definition.

Hello, I have been searching for help in setting up SNMP monitoring of an APC UPS. I found a plug-in called check_snmp_apcups and have been trying to configure it -- with no success. I am using nagios 3.0.6 and plugins 1.4.13 I placed check_snmp_apcups into the libexec folder and ran it from the command line. It worked well, giving me UPS information. However, I cannot figure out what to do to make it work in the web interface. The latest instructions I found (and followed) were from the wiki: http://community.nagios.org/wiki/index.php/Howtos:snmp-apc-smart-ups Now, these instructions refer to the check_snmp command, but this did not work from the command line for me. It got no response from the UPS. So, I changed the command to check_snmp_apcups. I added the command definitions to the command.cfg file and then created a ups.cfg file with the following: #### HOST #### define host{ use generic-host host_name apc-smart-ups alias apc-smart-ups address 192.168.1.10 hostgroups ups } #### HOST GROUP #### define hostgroup{ hostgoup_name ups alias ups } #### SERVICES #### define service{ use generic-service host_name apc-smart-ups service_description Environment-Temperature check_command snmp_ups_envtemp!nagmon } define service{ use generic-service host_name apc-smart-ups service_description Battery-Status check_command snmp_ups_stat!nagmon } define service{ use generic-service host_name apc-smart-ups service_description Battery-Status check_command snmp_ups_capa!nagmon } define service{ use generic-service host_name apc-smart-ups service_description Battery-Status check_command snmp_ups_freq!nagmon } define service{ use generic-service host_name apc-smart-ups service_description Battery-Status check_command snmp_ups_volt!nagmon } define service{ use generic-service host_name apc-smart-ups service_description Battery-Status check_command snmp_ups_current!nagmon } define service{ use generic-service host_name apc-smart-ups service_description Battery-Status check_command snmp_ups_load!nagmon } I then modified the nagios.cfg file to point to to the ups.cfg file. Next, I ran the verification command and received a warning of NULL value in the line that points to my ups.cfg file. I don't know what is wrong with it, or what I am missing. Could anyone give me some pointers as to what I am doing wrong? Thanks. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ This SF.net email is sponsored by: High Quality Requirements in a Collaborative Environment.
