RE: [WhatsUp Forum] Monitoring options for APC UPS

[Glatt, Robert]

there are a few different mibs that can be looked at depending on what you really want to know.

 

There is upsBasicBatteryStatus - with 3 variables, unknown, normal or low

            upsBasicOutputStatus -which tells you the current state of the UPS

 

I would suggest printing out the powernet.mib and picking the one(s) that fit your  needs

>>BatteryStatus 1.3.6.1.4.1.318.1.1.1.2.1.1.0 (UP if =2)


Not wanting to dig into the MIB, what exactly does this mean?

does it mean if the value is = 2 then the UPS in on 'line' power, and any other value means that the UPS is on 'Battery' Power?

As you can tell, I want a way to monitor whether the powere supplying the UPS is ON or OFF.

Hi!

First of all you must have a network card for you APC UPS ;)
Then you can monitor ICMP (is the UPS still alive) and a lot of SNMP
values.

We monitor:
BatteryNeededReplacement 1.3.6.1.4.1.318.1.1.1.2.2.4.0 (UP if =1)
BatteryStatus 1.3.6.1.4.1.318.1.1.1.2.1.1.0 (UP if =2)
InputVoltage 1.3.6.1.4.1.318.1.1.1.3.2.1.0 (between 210 and 250 volts is
ok)

There are additional values to monitor, for ex. internal temperature, look
in APC MIB base
(SNMP MIB base is included into your APC CD or is available from www.)

Greetings and salutations!


I am new to the realm of What's Up Gold monitoring.  We are just in the
early stages of development for the monitoring of all our servers and ups'.
My question is, what monitoring options via WUG are available to me for an
APC smart UPS? Thank you in advance.
