How to properly monitor UPS ippon with NUT and Zabbix
A long comment on a post in which the author told how to monitor ippon smart winner using apcupsd. In my opinion this is not the right decision. A question about NUT popped up in the comments and I was surprised that no one talked about a working solution. We will correct it.
In fact, NUT even works with representatives of the Ippon smart winner family. And it works with InnovaRT too.
The recipe looks simple. In ups.conf for smart winner add:
For InnovaRT, you need to change the productid to 0005. It makes no sense to describe the rest of the NUT parts, there are enough articles.
And zabbix is correct to use with LLD. I wanted to show my scripts, but google, found the creation of good people - tyts . There are slight differences from my solution, but their roots are about the same.
Offtopic: Be careful when connecting extra batteries to the smart winner! With a tester, check the correctness of the plus and minus output to the battery connector and UPS. It is a tester, you don’t have to trust color coding, I had precedents. If anything - usually 2 fuses on the board are lit, UPS survives after this.
Part One: NUT
In fact, NUT even works with representatives of the Ippon smart winner family. And it works with InnovaRT too.
The recipe looks simple. In ups.conf for smart winner add:
[ippon]
driver = blazer_usb
subdriver = phoenix
port = auto
vendorid = 06da
productid = 0003
desc = "UPS SW"
For InnovaRT, you need to change the productid to 0005. It makes no sense to describe the rest of the NUT parts, there are enough articles.
Part 2: Zabbix
And zabbix is correct to use with LLD. I wanted to show my scripts, but google, found the creation of good people - tyts . There are slight differences from my solution, but their roots are about the same.
Offtopic: Be careful when connecting extra batteries to the smart winner! With a tester, check the correctness of the plus and minus output to the battery connector and UPS.
