APC UPS Battery Alerts NPM 11.5

cp19

Hi,
Wondering if anyone has had experience with setting up a custom alert for APC UPS using a Universal Device Poller (specifically upsBasicOutputStatus).

The upsBasicOutputStatus currently has a status of "onLine". What I would like to do is be alerted when this changes. All forum posts seem to answer the question with the old Advanced Alert Manager.

When I try to add a status "not equal to" - there only seems to be pre-set responses that don't include "onLine"

Anyone know the proper way to set this up? Thanks!

    If you select "Other" from that column, does it give you a separate field to enter something else, or does it just look for "Other"?

    If you want to use SQL to define the trigger, you can try this, and tweak as necessary.

    SELECT n.Caption, cps.Status FROM Nodes AS n
    

    JOIN CustomPollerAssignment AS cpa ON n.NodeID = cpa.NodeID
    

    JOIN CustomPollers AS cp ON cpa.CustomPollerID = cp.CustomPollerID
    

    JOIN CustomPollerStatus AS cps ON cpa.CustomPollerAssignmentID = cps.CustomPollerAssignmentID
    

    WHERE cp.UniqueName = 'upsBasicOutputStatus'
    

    AND cps.Status NOT LIKE '%onLine%'

    Thanks for the SQL query.... But looks like I figured it out. Need to change the query to "current value" instead of "current status". The drop down then supplies the "onLine" status.
