New UPS monitor added to Xymonton
list Bill Arlofski
I just added a new entry to the Xymonton monitors page. The set of scripts is to monitor and graph AC input voltage, AC output voltage, battery charge %, battery voltagee, and UPS Load % of UPSes monitored by the Network UPS tools (NUT) suite. NUT is a great open-source UPS monitoring project who's primary goal as stated on their website is: "...to provide reliable monitoring of UPS and PDU hardware and ensure safe shutdowns of the systems which are connected. We attempt to monitor every kind of UPS and PDU, given sufficient interest." NUT may be found at http://www.networkupstools.org/ The latest versions of the xymon_nut_*.sh scripts, as well as instruction on installing them may be found at http://www.revpol.com/xymon_nut_scripts Hope these are useful to someone. :) P.S. I am not affiliated with the NUT project in any way other than that I recommend, install and support it at my client's sites.

Works very well! I'm not sure about up-load, though. It seems like it is
expecting you to use 80% or 90% and below is a bad thing. For me, this will
not work. I try to minimize load and get battery runtime.
This was quite simple once you get NUT configured. The SNMP config
documentation was a bit lacking so I will share what mine looks like...
#etc/ups.conf
#this is for APC's snmp use called powernet
[apclocation01]#this can be anything you want, it's for your reference, but
must be unique
driver = snmp-ups
port = 192.168.1.10#changethis
community = public#changethis
snmp_version = v1
mibs = apcc
pollfreq = 60
Also I would suggest using a variable that each of the xymon_nut* ext
scripts can look at, it's a bit annoying to change them all, but here is how
I did it:
#the default destination directory is /usr/local/ups
find . -name "xymon_nut*sh" -exec sed -i
"s,\/usr\/bin\/upsc,\/usr\/local\/ups\/bin\/upsc," '{}' \;
#this is to specify where the NUT server is
find . -name "xymon_nut*sh" -exec sed -i "s,host.example.com,127.0.0.1,"
'{}' \;
#these are your unique names in the statements of ups.conf so it will
contact NUT with bin/upsc user-d1ddd78b738e@xymon.invalid and bin/upsc
user-1dff73ae8e7f@xymon.invalid
find . -name "xymon_nut*sh" -exec sed -i "s,apc1000,apc1\ apc2\ apc3," '{}'

I am not sure what you mean here. I chose 80% and 90% as arbitrary test settings that may be lowered to whatever someone thinks is reasonable. Unless I am mistaken, the test I wrote will be set the status to yellow if the UPS load is greater than or equal to $yellowtest (80%) and the status will be set to red if the UPS load is eualto or greater than $redtest (80%). So we are on the same page I think... You want low loads on your UPS if possible, and want to go yellow, then red as the % load increases. I think I just failed to choose reasonable default values. ;)
This was quite simple once you get NUT configured.
Haha... Yeah, NUT can be a PITA, but it is generally worth the initial time spent.

Yeah, thanks for the advice Josh... I will probably implement that when I get some time to go back to those scripts. That whole thing started as a way to just monitor the load or the AC input voltage, then it grew into five separate, but very similar scripts over time. And since the binaries are all in the same place on my test machine, those were just copied from the previous script, so it was not an issue for me which is why I hadn't considered that.. Oh... And guess what? I just realized they are all already defined in ~xymon/server/etc/hobbitserver.cfg which gets sourced before the script is run, so you could probably just comment out those assignments (after adding an ECHO variable to hobbitserver.cfg) I will modify the scripts and not have a variable assignment for "echo" though since echo is built in to most shells (including bash that my scripts use) While writing the scripts, I found I had a /bin/echo binary so I set a variable for it. Update coming soon I guess. ;) Cheers and thanks for the feedback! -- Bill Arlofski Reverse Polarity, LLC

While this may be your intention that is not what I'm seeing.

Ah... I see it...
Your UPS reports load % with two decimal points (51.00), mine reports % load
with one (35.6)
So the logic in the script is correct, but the part where I was stripping past
the decimal failed to take into account more than one decimal.
By only stripping the decimal and one numeral past it, the test is saying "if
510 > 90 then set the status to red"
To fix it, change the line:
datanopoint=`echo "$data" | "$SED" -e 's/\.[0-9]//'`
to
datanopoint=`echo "$data" | "$SED" -e 's/\.[0-9]\{1,2\}//'`
P.S. I already made all the changes I mentioned in may last email and will be
putting up the simplified versions possibly later today, including this fix.
Thanks Josh

I am having an issue with the graphs. Is it possible the RRD was
created without supporting of two decimal places?
They are being referenced on their pages but the image does not show
up. The RRD files exist and do have values:
-> rrdtool dump out-voltage.rrd |grep "name\|type\|last_ds"
<name> 111111111</name>
<type> GAUGE </type>
<last_ds> 119.00 </last_ds>
<name> 222222222</name>
<type> GAUGE </type>
<last_ds> 121.00 </last_ds>
<name> 33333333333</name>
<type> GAUGE </type>

Never mind, missing the name of my UPS on hobbitgraphs. How does one put multiple UPS on a single graph, though? I'm looking at the disk statement and I don't see where a second rrd file comes in to play. Is it necessary for one graph to load from one rrd file?

I see! Would be nice to have an example or place to document this in more detail. Could we start a public Xymon Wiki for these kinds of things? I believe I have it correct - three DEF, LINE and GPRINT lines (note that they are being escaped with \ ) for three UPS units. I'm not certain as the data is all at 120v at the moment.

I find this works quite well for me. Notice the smaller line size the farther down it goes - this enables you to actually see the bigger lines above (behind) the others.

Did you mean to have all three DEFS the same rrd/variable:
DEF:FIRSTUPS=in-voltage.rrd:FIRSTUPS:AVERAGE
DEF:SECONDUPS=in-voltage.rrd:FIRSTUPS:AVERAGE
DEF:THIRDUPS=in-voltage.rrd:FIRSTUPS:AVERAGE
You can also put the LINE lines in between the GPRINTs so that the colored
dots show up in the same line as the appropriate cur/min/max/avg values.
