Hi....
I have been using Observium for a while now and really
like it....
Recently I added a Geist smart PDU to monitor it.....it does
seem to recognise it, but all it seems to monitor is various
network stats. I had been hoping it might automatically
begin monitoring voltage, current, watts etc. for both the
PDU as a whole and even if possible its individual outlets.
It does recognise it as a Geist PDU and the inventory for the
unit does correctly show it as having 24 controlled power
outlets. However, there is no 'Health' tab and it doesn't seem
to graph or monitor any of the electrical stats for the PDU or
its outlets.
I was just wondering if maybe I have done something wrong,
or it it that currently the Geist PDU is not fully supported
and that monitoring a Geist PDU this way is a work in
progress?
If it is still a work in progress, I'd be willing to have a
go at getting (or helping to get) Observium to support
monitoring the PDU fully, but I'm a bit lost as to where to
begin. I know a reasonable amount about PHP and SNMP, but am
no expert.
Thanx in advance for any help.
