nagios report error with power which does not exist

Post by jstaruch »

Hi all ,

I would like to ask your opinion. Nagios is reporting error see attachment "FRU power 18000" I double checked switch but I did not found any problems with power on device... No error in logs , or in show commands..

What is the exact service check in question here? Please cat the service in question (FRU Power 18000) and the command in question (possibly check_snmp or similar).

I looked at error again and description says:

The check is CRIT when administrative state is off or operation state is offDenied, offEnvPower, OffEnvTemp, offEnvFan fail

As you can see in Output of check plugin Administrative state: off

This could be reson why we got those error messages... How can I check in nagios if check_mk-cisco_fru_power is enabled.. ??

Thx

I don't think it's the check that's the problem here. I think what is off is the power monitoring functionality of the FRU Power device.

Per the plugin you are using:
This check monitors the administrative and operational status of field replaceable unit (FRU) power supplies of Cisco switches. The check is OK when the administrative and operational state is on. The check is CRIT when the administrative state is off or the operational state is offDenied, offEnvPower, offEnvTemp, offEnvFan, failed, or onButInlinePowerFail. The check is WARN otherwise.
I do not know how to turn the administrative state on - I suggest looking at the manual that came with your Cisco device to do so.

EDIT: I found this guide, which may be of use: http://www.cisco.com/c/en/us/td/docs/sw ... coent.html
