add to zabbix UPS, connected to FreeNAS

[mykolaq]

i have 2 zabbix servers in one rack and apc smart-ups, connected to one of them. I wanna add this ups to zabbix using snmp (now i have istalled zabbix agent on freenas), cause it is comfortable for me (i wanna have all monitoring devices in one place).
Are there any ways to do it?

I don't understand the question. What does the UPS have to do with freenas?

 

[zambanini]

zabbix is a monitoring system. I guess he wants to get the values from the direct connected (usb I guess) UPS via snmp to feed the monitoring system.

@mykolaq It is not smart, to install software packages on the FreeNAS appliance.
SNMP is the better way, so no extra dependencies. you can add customs trings for the snmp query in the system tab, maybe you can also run a shell script, that gets the nuts data for the UPS system and get back the data to snmap.)

my prefered way would be a snmp card for your UPS or a converter, but it is a matter of money you want to spend.

I know what zabbix is, and it sounds like the zabix server is connected to a UPS. And there is a zabbix agent installed on freenas. So what is the real ask here?

if i understand the question he is wondering how to get the zabbix agent on his freenas to talk to his zabbix server for centralized monitoring.

did you mean something like that http://www.apc.com/shop/us/en/products/UPS-Network-Management-Card-2/P-AP9630?_requestid=23383 . Any other way?

 

[zambanini]

yes, there are also some generic boxes available.

Maybe you know is it the only way?:(

you can also write your own bsnmp config file
https://www.freebsd.org/cgi/man.cgi?query=bsnmpd&sektion=1#CONFIGURATION
or create a shell script for zabbix, which connects via ssh to freenas and queries the nuts daemon for the ups data...there are many ways. just don't expect that someone will do the scripting for you.
