Powerware UPS MIBs

Does anyone here know how to get Orion to pull the Powerware MIB that shows the Battery install date or last time the batteries were tested? I would like to try and get Orion to get this information that have to buy another network tool.

Do an snmpwalk with net-snmp, and see if you can pull up any mibs that the device knows about.

I see the mib definitions are found at http://www.powerware.com/UPS/Connectivity/Firmware_Flash_Utilities.asp?CC=1

Another MIB definition - thanks, solarwinds!: http://support.ipmonitor.com/mibs/XUPS-MIB/raw.aspx (raw mib output)

Looking at this raw output, I don't see any mibs that show either install date or battery test time.

Thanks. Those helped alot. I founf what I needed. I just over looked when I was on the Eaton site. Now I just have to figure out how to report on custom MIB's.

The reporting tool supports custom MIBs - just select the fields PollerName, OID, etc.

I've got a sql query I use for polling CRC errors and duplex errors - a bit complex, but it boils down to:

"WHERE CustomPollers.OID = '1.3.6.1.2.1.10.7.2.1.19' AND RawStatus != 1"

SELECT Interfaces.InterfaceIcon, Interfaces.OperStatusLED, Nodes.NodeID, Interfaces.FullName, CustomPollerAssignment.InterfaceID,Replace(Replace(Replace(RawStatus,'3','Full Duplex (3)'), '2', 'Half Duplex (2)'),'1','Unknown/Shutdown (1)') AS RawStatus, Interfaces.InterfaceSpeed, Interfaces.InErrorsToday, Interfaces.OutErrorsToday FROM CustomPollerAssignment
JOIN CustomPollers
ON CustomPollers.CustomPollerID = CustomPollerAssignment.CustomPollerID
JOIN CustomPollerStatus
ON CustomPollerStatus.CustomPollerAssignmentID = CustomPollerAssignment.CustomPollerAssignmentID
JOIN Nodes
ON CustomPollerAssignment.NodeID = Nodes.NodeID
JOIN Interfaces
ON CustomPollerAssignment.InterfaceID = Interfaces.InterfaceID
WHERE CustomPollers.OID = '1.3.6.1.2.1.10.7.2.1.19' AND RawStatus != 1 AND Interfaces.OperStatus = 1 AND (Interfaces.InErrorsToday > 10 OR Interfaces.OutErrorsToday > 10)

Thanks again. I know absolutly nothing about SQL scripts. This gave me alittle to go on.

I am trying to run a report on Battery Replacement dates and can see where the raw values are stored in the database to referance on the reports. If you or anyone can suggest a good site to get some SQL scrips ideas that would be helpful.

Does anyone have the default snmp so I can even get this into Orion other than just pining the device? PowerWare 9315
