How can we configure environment alerts ( all including Power / Temperature/Fan ). If anyone know kindly tell me. Thanks in advance.
Kiran,
I am assuming you are running 10.4 or later on NPM. 10.4 brought a nice feature for Power, Temp and Fan info without the need for UNDP.
In Advanced Alerts select type of property to Hardware sensor, and fill in the appropriate trigger conditions.
Here is an example for Temperature. Remember this sensor value returned here is in Celsius. Fan and Power alerts should be similar. You may want to run a report 1st to get an idea the relevant values in you network and set the trigger condition correctly. This will also let you know if you have devices that are capable and have metrics in the DB.
Hope this helps.

I am using NPM 10.3. How can i configure power/temperature/fan alert in this version using UNDP??? Kindly tell me the whole procedure.
If you have a current maintenance agreement I would strongly advise upgrading to 10.4 as it is so much easier to achieve what you want. If you really can't upgrade for some reason this can become a lot more complex as you need to know what hardware manufacturer you're using, etc. since they all store the environmental details in different OIDs, etc.
I agree. 10.4 will make things much easier. You will automatically get power/temp/Fan with 10.4 from devices that support this feature.
If you want to stick with the UNDP, then you will need to identify the OID's and apply them using the universal device poller. Then you can then build alerts to trigger on those values retrieved by the UNDP.
This link shows some examples.
