Hey guys, I'm trying to add a new performance template for our APC rack mount PDUs (fancy networked power strips) so I can monitor the power consumption in amps and graph them.
I looked up the MIB for the devices and was able to determine which OIDs I needed to pull down. Specifically, they are: rPDULoadStatusLoad (returns tenths of amps used, 32 is 3.2 amps) 1.3.6.1.4.1.318.1.1.12.2.3.1.1.2.1 rPDULoadPhaseConfigOverloadThreshold (device default is 12 amps) 1.3.6.1.4.1.318.1.1.12.2.2.1.1.4.1 rPDULoadPhaseConfigNearOverloadThreshold (device default is 8 amps) 1.3.6.1.4.1.318.1.1.12.2.2.1.1.3.1 rPDULoadPhaseConfigLowLoadThreshold (device defualt is 0 amps) 1.3.6.1.4.1.318.1.1.12.2.2.1.1.2.1 I added all four datasources to the template, and added datapoints to each source as GAUGE. After this I bound the APC PDU template to the /Devices/Power class and restarted the zenperfsnmp daemon. Within about 5 minutes I started seeing the appropriate RRD files in the $ZENHOME/perf/Devices/<device>/ and I was able to see they were pulling the correct data by running `rrdtool info <rrdfile>`. Here is an example of the output from rrdtool - http://pastebin.ca/886715 Ok, so next I added a new graph definition called PDU Power Load. I set the units to Amps, and added a new graph point attached to the rPDULoadStatusLoad_StatusLoad datasource. Then, I changed the line type to area and entered a RPN value of `10,/` so that result would be divided by 10. OK! So after going to lunch and returning in hopes of seeing my new data, I was presented with this type of graph: Any ideas? Thanks!
