Operating Systems AIX System monitoring with RMC/RSCT Post 302927505 by blackrageous on Wednesday 3rd of December 2014 01:42:44 PM
Old 12-03-2014
I recently completed testing and re-introducing myself to snmp, in particular the new features provided by snmpv3. snmpv3 does address security. I would use the snmp features provided by aix and integrate them with something like nagios (if I didn't have another manager). The sub daemons seem to provide all the information you want from an aix system. The hard part is configuring it..it is not as simple and snmpv1. The key to configuring is--I think--is to start with an snmpdv3.conf file that works. I didn't like the one I found in the samples directory on AIX so I used one I found on the internet complete with query examples. I tested querying from different machines to insure the security was working. I prefer snmp because, unlike rsct, a lot of things use it. Still testing.

NAME
snmp-ups - Driver for RFC 1628 SNMP UPS equipment NOTE
This man page only documents the hardware-specific features of the snmp-ups driver. For information about the core driver, see nutups- drv(8). SUPPORTED HARDWARE
Any UPS that is RFC 1628 (UPS MIB) compliant. EXPERIMENTAL DRIVER
This driver has been tagged experimental and is not built by default. REQUIREMENTS
This driver needs UCD SNMP, aka Net-SNMP installed to compile successfully. See http://www.net-snmp.org/ for more information. On Red Hat 7.2, these packages are required: ucd-snmp-devel-4.2.3-1, ucd-snmp-4.2.3-1, ucd-snmp-utils-4.2.3-1 You must install SNMP-UPS-MIB.txt in your MIBs directory - typically /usr/share/snmp/mibs/, but it may vary from system to system. You can generate this from chapter 4 of RFC 1628 (see http://www.faqs.org). EXTRA ARGUMENTS
This driver supports the following optional settings in the ups.conf(5): community=name Set community name (default = public) snmp_version=version Set SNMP version (default = v1, the other allowed value is v2c) INSTALLATION
This driver is not built by default. You can build it by using "configure --with-drivers=snmp-ups" before calling make. IMPLEMENTATION
The hostname of the UPS is specified with the "port" value in ups.conf, i.e.: [snmp] driver = snmp-ups port = snmp-ups.example.com community = public snmp_version = v1 SUPPORTED VARIABLES
INFO_MFR UPS Manufacturer INFO_MODEL UPS Model INFO_FIRMREV Firmware/Software Version INFO_STATUS OFF, OL, OB, BOOST, TRIM INFO_BATTPCT Battery percentage INFO_RUNTIME Predicted runtime on battery INFO_BATTVOLT Battery Voltage INFO_OUTVOLT Output Voltage PLANNED SUPPORT
INFO_UTILITY Input Voltage INFO_ACFREQ AC Frequency INFO_UPSTEM UPS Temperature INFO_LOADPCT Load Percentage CMD_? Not determined AUTHORS
