Re: Liebert Emerson Aircon SNMP

Hi Trev,

I know nothing about these specific aircon units, but I'd suggest trying 
a few checks...

1) In your collectd-configuration.xml you should have at least one 
org.opennms.netmgt.collectd.SnmpCollector defined in a <collector> tag 
(at the bottom), and the service attribute of that collector will be 
referenced by at least one <service> tag higher up, which is contained 
within a <package> --- Please ensure that the <filter> for that 
<package> is inclusive of the devices you're monitoring.

2) For the <service> tag doing your SNMP collection, check that the 
<parameter> key/value pair for 'collection' matches the 
<snmp-collection> name in datacollection-config.xml

I mention 1 and 2 because it's possible to carve up SNMP collection into 
different packages which and so it's important to make sure that the 
MIBS you want to include are assigned to the correct package.

3) Check your configuration using  the config tester. The following 
example is on Ubuntu - the path's under /opt CentOS I believe, and I'm 
don't know about windows.

# /usr/share/opennms/bin/config-tester collectd-configuration.xml

(You can also run the tester with '-a' to check all config files)

4) Try doing an 'snmpwalk' of the device in question. You should be able 
to use the MIB to make the output more meaningful - It is worth checking 
that you do actually get the data you're seeking from this.

5) It's well worth checking that documentation for the Aircon system - 
make sure you're using the correct community name or SNMPv3 credentials 
(which must be added to snmp-config.xml), and that the username or 
community you're using has got Read access to the entire OID tree - Some 
devices allow you to limit access to only a small subset of the full 
information.

6) Log files in /var/log/opennms may help - especially, 
instrumentation.log and collectd.log for collection information, and 
output.log for any config errors picked up during startup. You can 
easily increase the verbosity of any of these logs in the bottom section 
of log4j2.xml by setting them to INFO, or DEBUG.

Hope this helps

Jonathan
