SNMPv2-MIB::sysDescr.0 = STRING: APC Web/SNMP Management Card
(MB:v3.8.6 PF:v5.1.3 PN:apc_hw05_aos_513.bin AF1:v5.1.3
AN1:apc_hw05_sumx_513.bin MN:AP9630 HR:05 SN: ZA1031030798
MD:07/31/2010) (Embedded PowerNet SNMP Agent SW v2.2 compatible)

It had only just clicked that the sysdesc == sysDescr.0 from snmpwalk.

The APC template for the Smart-UPS 1000 RM works OK.

What I now see is the Powerware 9390 and 9130 getting matched against
ups/standard because of the string 'UPS' in sydDesc.0.  These nodes
report:
SNMPv2-MIB::sysDescr.0 = STRING: ConnectUPS Web/SNMP Card V4.30

I see that there is a pware-xups template with a sysdesc of
'ConnectUPS'.  How do I make Xymon use pware-xups instead of
ups/standard?

Thanks
