Hello! I am trying to scrap multiple APC UPS's on my network via snmpv1, one works great, one does not work at all with this error.

107 error(s) occurred: * collected metric "upsHighPrecBatteryPackCartridgeReplaceDate" { label:{name:"upsHighPrecBatteryCartridgeIndex" value:"1"} label:{name:"upsHighPrecBatteryPackCartridgeReplaceDate" value:"01/01/2000"} label:{name:"upsHighPrecBatteryPackIndex" value:"9"} gauge:{value:1}} was collected before with the same name and label values

here is my generator.yml config

Can you find upsHighPrecBatteryPackCartridgeReplaceDate in your snmp.yml? What version of PowerNet-MIB do you have?

This is what I get when I generate your config:

- name: upsHighPrecBatteryPackCartridgeReplaceDate
oid: 1.3.6.1.4.1.318.1.1.1.2.3.10.2.1.8
type: DisplayString
help: The battery cartridge estimated battery replace date. - 1.3.6.1.4.1.318.1.1.1.2.3.10.2.1.8
indexes:
- labelname: upsHighPrecBatteryPackIndex
type: gauge
- labelname: upsHighPrecBatteryCartridgeIndex
type: gauge

Can you provide a manual snmpwalk output of that OID (1.3.6.1.4.1.318.1.1.1.2.3.10.2.1.8`)?

Since you're not dropping the source index on this, that should not produce duplicates.

According to the MIB in the snmp_exporter generator folder, 4.5.1.

It's also worth noting, this isn't just upsHighPrecBatteryPackCartridgeReplaceDate, it's 106 others as well.

I was cautious posting the whole thing here at once cause I didn't want to post a wall of text as my first post. Here's the pastebin https://pastebin.com/9trFyUG6

Also it's good for me to tell you what UPS's I am trying to read.

The working one:

Smart-UPS 2200

The non-working ones:

Smart-UPS SRT 5000
Smart-UPS SRT 5000
Smart-UPS SRT 5000
Smart-UPS SRT 5000

yes there are 4 of them lol.

Thinking about it, am I suppose ot be using a specific MIB for the 5000's vs the 2200?

Do you have a walk for the working one as well?

It looks like the device is returning more indexes than are valid for the MIB. The MIB declares two index values, but the snmpwalk is returning three.

Compare the OIDs:

1.3.6.1.4.1.318.1.1.1.2.3.10.2.1.8

1.3.6.1.4.1.318.1.1.1.2.3.10.2.1.8.1.1.1

You can see there are three index values before the string.

Confirming with the MIB, there are only two entries in the INDEX.

upsHighPrecBatteryPackEntry OBJECT-TYPE
SYNTAX UPSHighPrecBatteryPackEntry
ACCESS not-accessible
STATUS mandatory
DESCRIPTION^M
"An entry containing information applicable to a
particular battery pack."
INDEX { upsHighPrecBatteryPackIndex, upsHighPrecBatteryCartridgeIndex }
::= { upsHighPrecBatteryPackTable 1 }

Sounds like you will need to complain to APC that their firmware is buggy, or the MIB is invalid. They made a breaking change to the data definition or data. Can't tell which without asking them.

So the walk for the working one, Smart-UPS 2200, with that same OID does not return anything. That might be why that one is working. So now the question on the newer models is how to get it so they can be working? Remove that OID?

root@server# snmpwalk -v1 -c public <ip> 1.3.6.1.4.1.318.1.1.1.2.3.10.2.1.8

> Sounds like you will need to complain to APC that their firmware is buggy, or the MIB is invalid. They made a breaking change to the data definition or data. Can't tell which without asking them.

Seconded.

The whole point of OIDs is that they are supposed to be globally unique; however, I've seen cases where two different devices from the same vendor are using the same OIDs in different ways (Netgear switches come to mind). Sometimes even two different firmware versions for the same model.

This means you'll end up with multiple, conflicting MIBs for the same part of the OID tree. You then have to obtain the correct MIB file for each different type of device, and the hard part is ensuring that your software uses the correct subset of MIB files when talking to a particular device.

In the case of snmp_exporter, this means you'll need to build one snmp.yml with one set of MIB files present, and another snmp.yml with a different set of MIB files present. You can then combine them as modules with different names (or recent versions of snmp_exporter let you drop multiple files into a directory)

I knew I had seen this before:

https://github.com/prometheus/snmp_exporter/issues/632

Is there anything in the web UI of the device that would indicate what a third column would be?

Also, if you could pastebin a raw snmpwalk of the upper level battery packs OID: 1.3.6.1.4.1.318.1.1.1.2.3.10

That might give me a clue as to what the index should be.

Otherwise, the only thing I can figure is the device output is broken in a weird way.
