Hello all! I have several non SNMP aware apc's and would like to generate traps during status pulls to send the data over to nagios were it would get processed and MRGT graphs generated. Does anyone know how / if its possible to get apcupsd to generate traps? if not, would it be a worthwhile project to look into? -Ron |

The UPSes themselves can be configured to send traps wherever you'd like. --Adam |

Adam, Thanks for the quick response :) Maybe i am confused or just not in the know.. How would one get SNMP traps from a Smart-UPS 3000 when the UPS itself does not have a ether port? -Ron Adam Kropelin wrote: > On Fri, Nov 7, 2008 at 11:58 AM, Ronald J.

Sorry, I missed the "non SNMP aware" part of your mail. --Adam Ronald J. Yacketta wrote: >> Adam, >> >> Thanks for the quick response :) >> >> Maybe i am confused or just not in the know..

Second try, after reading more carefully this time... ;) Ronald J.

There is a user-contributed nagios plugin for apcupsd in the examples/ directory in the apcupsd source tree. The plugin queries apcupsd's NIS network server for data. I've not used the plugin myself, so I don't know how reliable it is or how to install it, but it's a starting point. > Does anyone know how / if its possible to get apcupsd to generate > traps? if not, would it be a worthwhile project to look into? It would be possible to write an apcupsd NIS-to-SNMP bridge application that would monitor apcupsd's NIS and send SNMP traps when interesting events happen. At the moment I don't have time for such a development task, but I'd be happy to provide technical guidance about interfacing to apcupsd if someone else wants to work on it. --Adam |

Adam, Who should i submit a patch to for examples/nagios_plugin_check_apcupsd.c ? found a couple syntax errors that caused compiler errors. -Ron Adam Kropelin wrote: > Second try, after reading more carefully this time... ;) > > > Ronald J.
