I have just discovered that myself… Thank you Tom :)

any devices that could possible replace the unit that would work with observium?

it might be time for an upgrade as we’ve had that switch for neally 3 years..

Hi all,

We currently use an old APC power switch to remotely switch servers on and off and the observium can detect its an APC :-)

however i don’t get any graphs for it ?

no power usage? no temperature ? nothing ?

is the any form of graphs i could get outta it for use with the observium ?

the web card is an old AP9606 and the unit is an AP9212

Regards

Simon

My mistake for my incorrect use of words

I am looking at replacing the current remote power switch we use as it is indeed old

could anyone recommend a brand/model that would be ideal ?

i need info from it like the graphs and charts of usage per power socket as these features are indeed missing from my old unit

i am willing to develop a module for observium if the brand doesn’t work with it if need be :)

I think ti's best to describe what you need instead of "i want to upgrade it for use with observium". Newer APC switched PDUs have current stats.

Ipoman have per-port current stats and an optional sensor module.

Probably a lot of other brands do to, we support some... but probably not all (yet) ;)
