Data Center Temperature Monitoring via BASH Script

---

Following is an bash script to monitor data center temperature via SNMP query from Emerson 10kva UPS with web snmp card installed. We can monitor the temperature via manageable ups builtin feature as well, but I required some customization so I enabled the SNMP feature in ups web card and made following Linux bash script to do the tasks. I am sharing it for general public as an example.

Hardware/Software Used:

1. Emerson UPS ITA 10k UPS. [Sensor IRM-S02TH-001]
2. Ubuntu 12.4
3. SendEmail application to send email alter via GMAIL account
4. Kannel as SMS gateway to send sms alert

Following is an example code of SNMP query of temperature monitor from Emerson UPS ITA 10k UPS. [Sensor IRM-S02TH-001]. First we will inquire the UPS by snmpwalk query to confirm the OID and response.

root@linux:/temp# snmpwalk -v2c -Oqv -c public  10.0.0.2  1.3.6.1.4.1.13400.2.62.2.1.2.0
#Result could be something like below as we need only the numerical value of temperature
2070

THE sCRIPT !

#!/bin/bash
# Function: DATA CENTER TEMPERATURE ALERT SCRIPT
# Scheduled Script to check data center temperature via SNMP after every 5 minutes.
# In this example we are using Emerson 10kva UPS with web snmp card attached to the network.
# If it found temperature above out defined threshold , it will send sms or email Alerts,
# but it iwll not repeat the sending alert untill next status change.
