Nagios Support Forum

Hi,

Do you know if there is a plugin that can monitor the external temperature. I am monitoring this in checkmk:

OK - APC Web/SNMP Management Card (MB:v4.1.0 PF:v6.5.0 PN:apc_hw05_aos_650.bin AF1:v6.5.0 AN1:apc_hw05_sumx_650.bin MN:AP9631 HR:08 SN: 5A1812T32523 MD:03/22/2018) (Embedded PowerNet SNMP Agent SW v2.2 compatible), SAC-UPS02, SACRAMENTO (TOP), Unknown

but now I need to monitor this in NagiosXI and I have not been able to find a plugin that monitor the external temperature.

Please let me know if someone has done this before. This is what i need: Thanks

HI,

Looking over the Nagios Exchange, I did find a plugin that supports external temperature, please take a look at the specs.

https://exchange.nagios.org/directory/P ... ks/details
https://github.com/riskersen/Monitoring/tree/master/UPS

It supports the following hardware. If that works, the would be the best option, otherwise, using a generic SNMP check would be another.

Here's a guide on how to install and configure a plugin from the Nagios Exchange.

Third-Party Plugins in Nagios XI

What is the full output of these commands from the XI server against the APC?

Hi
I've run the commands and this is the output:

I've downloaded the pluging but it is not working, this is the output. It is sending errors and at the end shows the checks but there is not anyone related to external temperature

HI,

That's strange, not quite sure on that output. The OID for the temperature check is 1.3.6.1.4.1.318.1.1.10.2.3.2.1.4. You'll find that listed on the following page:

APC UPS Temperature service

I found another plugin on the Nagios Exchange to test at it contains the OID's for APC.

SNMP UPS Check

If it fails, please post the full check command and output as run from the CLI so we can review the arguments and error output.

Thanks, Benjamin

If that doesn't work, then the other option is to setup a generic snmp checking using the SNMP wizard in Nagios XI.

Try this one here (extract it, go into the APC directory, it's called check_apc_temp):

https://github.com/48kRAM/nagios-plugins/releases

Upload it in Admin > Manage Plugins.

Then send the output of these commands:
- Change X.X.X.X to the APC IP
- Change yourcommunity

Hi Benjamin,
I've run the pluging "check_ups_snmp" on my server and this i the output:

$ ./check_ups_snmp
./check_ups_snmp: line 204: syntax error near unexpected token `then'
./check_ups_snmp: line 204: ` NUMBER_ALARMS=`get_snmp $OID_upsAlarmsPresent` check_snmp_error "$?" "$NUMBER_ALARMS" if [[ $NUMBER_ALARMS -eq 0 ]]; then OUTPUT="No alarms present." '

I do not what should I change in the plugin or if this plugn is not working

Then send the output of these commands:
- Change X.X.X.X to the APC IP
- Change yourcommunity

Code: Select all

/usr/local/nagios/libexec/check_apc_temp -H X.X.X.X -C 'yourcommunity' -w 70 -c 80 -v
/usr/local/nagios/libexec/check_apc_temp -H X.X.X.X -C 'yourcommunity' -w 70 -c 80 -p 1 -v
/usr/local/nagios/libexec/check_apc_temp -H X.X.X.X -C 'yourcommunity' -w 70 -c 80 -p 2 -v
/usr/local/nagios/libexec/check_apc_temp -H X.X.X.X -C 'yourcommunity' -w 70 -c 80 -p 3 -v

Hi ssax,
I've run the command but i am getting this error:

./check_apc_temp -H XXXXXX -C XXXXXXXX -c 80 -v
Can't find string terminator "EOH" anywhere before EOF at ./check_apc_temp line 18.

This is the script: I do not know what to change

I may be a copy/paste error because I did not get either of those errors and your screenshot makes it look like that's the problem. Please run these commands to download, configure, and test the plugins against your APC:

check_apc_temp
check_ups_snmp
