Hello All,

I'm new to Zenoss and SNMP monitoring, so bare with me . I have a couple of APC UPS's that I would like to monitor an OID that shows the battery output status. I'm having a hard time trying to figure this out. I can make a graph and create a threshold, but i don't want to that.

OID Info:

SNMP Object Type upsBasicOutputStatus

OID 1.3.6.1.4.1.318.1.1.1.4.1.1.0

Returns The current state of the UPS:

1 = Unknown
2 = On Line
3 = On Battery
4 = On Smart Boost
5 = Timed Sleeping
6 = Software Bypass
7 = Off
8 = Rebooting
9 = Switched Bypass
10 = Hardware Failure Bypass
11 = Sleeping Until Power Returns
12 = On Smart Trim

How do I make zenoss monitor this OID (Without a graph) and send a event when the value changes to 3?
