Examples

Sensors

check_hwgroup --community public --snmp-version 2c --port 1161 --host poseidon2-3266.internal --warning 10 --critical 20 --sensor 29448

[CRITICAL] - Poseidon2 3266 SNMP Supervisor v3.8.4 - Sensor value: 25.3|'HTemp Rack 19'=25.3;10;20

Check for a negative value:

check_hwgroup --community public --snmp-version 2c --port 1161 --host poseidon2-3265.internal --warning="-5:" --critical="-10:" --sensor 33640

[CRITICAL] - Poseidon 3265 SNMP Supervisor v3.0.4 - Sensor value: -14.5|MORAL3=-14.5;-5:;-10:

Dry Contacts

check_hwgroup --community public --snmp-version 2c --port 1161 --host poseidon2-3266.internal --warning 1 --critical 1 --contact 1

[OK] - Poseidon2 3266 SNMP Supervisor v3.8.4 - Contact name: Binary 1, AlarmState: normal, AlarmSetup: active if on|'Binary 1'=0;1;1

check_hwgroup --community public --snmp-version 1 --port 161 --host damocles-mini.internal --warning 1 --critical 1 --contact 1

[OK] - Damocles MINI SNMP Supervisor v1.0.11 - Contact name: Input 1, AlarmState: normal, AlarmSetup: inactive|'Input 1'=0;1;1

How the plugin maps the returned contact states:

• 0: normal
• 1: activated
• everything else: unknown

How the plugin maps the returned contact setup:

• 0: active if on
• 1: active if off
• 2: inactive
• everything else: unknown

Relay Outputs

check_hwgroup --community public --snmp-version 2c --port 1161 --host poseidon2-3266.internal --warning 1 --critical 1 --output 1

[OK] - Poseidon2 3266 SNMP Supervisor v3.8.4 - Output name: VirtBinOut 1, Type: On / Off (Relay output), Mode: Manual output control|'VirtBinOut 1'=0;1;1

How the plugin maps the returned output states:

• 0: On / Off (Relay output)
• 1: On (+10V) / Off (-10V) (RTS output)
• 2: On (+10V) / Off (0V) (DTR output)
• everything else: unknown

How the plugin maps the returned output setup:

• 0: Manual output control
• 1: On if any alarm
• 2: On if value equal to Trigger
• 3: On if value higher than Trigger
• 4: On if value lower than Trigger
• 5: On if Alarm on
• everything else: unknown
