For the lazy folk who don't want to slog :

1.3.6.1.4.1.318.1.1.1.7.2.3.0 upsAdvTestDiagnosticResult a value of 2 = failed

1.3.6.1.4.1.318.1.1.1.2.1.1.0 upsBasicBatterStatus a value of 2 is ok

1.3.6.1.4.1.318.1.1.1.2.2.4.0 upsAdvBatteryReplaceIndicator a value of 1 is ok

1.3.6.1.4.1.318.1.1.1.4.1.1.0 upsBasicOutputStatus a 7 means it is turned off

1.3.6.1.4.1.318.1.1.1.4.2.3.0 (i didn't copy the OID name) is the %load of the ups, we trigger at 80

at least those are the 5 tests I play with.

Double check the oid numbers when you do the SNMP WALK to verify them, I had to do the paper/pencil stuff for this email.

I'm not sure if I'm reading your question properly but there's a big difference between battery condition and upsbasicOutputStatus. Battery condition, to me, refers to the charge holding ability of the battery. As anyone using UPS's knows, batteries go bad way too often. It's probable you will have a situation where your battery(s) fail and you won't know it because you haven't lost input power to the UPS yet. Off the top of my head I don't know what OID you would use to monitor the UPS's diagnostic routines but it seems to me that just looking at "upsbasicOutputStatus" is not sufficient.

Hi, people.

This may be a stupid question, but I'd be even stupider if I didn't ask it,
and continued not to know.......

What is the difference between allowing an SNMP trap (UPS on Battery/power
restored) to notify of the battery condition and creating the SNMP
monitoring entry below (upsbasicOutputStatus)??
