Re: New to Solarwinds and having issues getting monitoring setup
mharvey Nov 7, 2014 10:36 AM (in response to casperen)If you're not getting out of the base SNMP monitoring, which you probably aren't, then you'd have to setup a Universal Device Poller for them. This link may help finding the MIBs to try to use: ipMonitor :: LIEBERT-GP-POWER-MIB: Liebert Power SNMP OIDs. Once you have the OID, you can use the Universal Device Poller to assign it to these RPCs in order to collect the power and temp information from the devices. Another option would be to use the snmpwalk.exe tool in the install directory and add in that devices IP and SNMP community string. The output is a bit much to take in, but you can compare the values to the values you are looking for from the Liebert RPC's management interface to match up the values, then find the corresponding OID.

casperen Nov 10, 2014 11:04 AM (in response to mharvey)Thanks for your reply, I've went through the steps but it looks like the MIB I need isn't in the database. I need to submit a ticket and get them uploaded.

mharvey Nov 10, 2014 11:18 AM (in response to casperen)If you know the OID, it doesn't need to be in the database. All that will do is make them searchable. If you know the OIDs, you can create the pollers with them.

Re: New to Solarwinds and having issues getting monitoring setup
casperen Nov 10, 2014 11:22 AM (in response to mharvey)I did the try the snmpwalk.exe tool to find the OID. The issue is the PDU I'm trying to read have 4 different values I need to read and I'm not sure what OID I would need.

where you able to find the OID for the variable you were looking for?

Re: New to Solarwinds and having issues getting monitoring setup
casperen Nov 10, 2014 12:06 PM (in response to CourtesyIT)I think so, but when I add it using the univeral device poller it is returning a different value than the one that is listed when I completed the SNMP walk. I'm assuming that when I set the advanced setting to rate, it will capture the value I need that is gauge32.

Re: New to Solarwinds and having issues getting monitoring setup
casperen Nov 10, 2014 12:51 PM (in response to casperen)Ok this isn't making sense to me. I used the SNMPwalk tool to scan the device for the OID's.
I'm looking for the amp's on the pic below:
Here is the SNMP walk file:
It looks like it should be one of those OID's. I inserted a range into the universal device poller:
This is what I get back when I run a test:
I'm not sure what I'm doing wrong, but the OID's are not returning the correct values.

Re: New to Solarwinds and having issues getting monitoring setup
mharvey Nov 10, 2014 12:54 PM (in response to casperen)An OID is unable to return a "wrong value" it's returning what the device is telling it, it all depends on how often those results are updated. From year I can see, this is one of many rows on a table. This also looks like it's reporting in Hundredths. Try using the Browse MIB tree, entering the OID, then use Show in MIB tree to see what other rows are available. The value you are getting may also be a calculation being done by the management gui that may require a transform of one or more of the OID values that gui is using.
