Aha! I found the problem by looking closer at the generated snmp.yml. This PDU manufacturer OID is *1418*. I have another MIB installed from a different manufacturer *1718* which also has an OID called outletName. So the generator config I shared before actually produces incorrect snmp.yml as below. The solution I found is to be explicit in the lookup like this: lookups: - source_indexes: [outletIndex] lookup: 1.3.6.1.4.1.1418.6.5.1.2
Is this expected behavior and is there a better way to handle it? Incorrect snmp.yml: - name: outletStatus oid: 1.3.6.1.4.1.1418.6.5.1.6 type: gauge help: ' - 1.3.6.1.4.1.1418.6.5.1.6' indexes: - labelname: outletIndex type: gauge lookups: - labels: - outletIndex labelname: outletName oid: 1.3.6.1.4.1.1718.3.2.3.1.3 type: DisplayString On Mon, Nov 20, 2023 at 6:41 PM 'Elliott Balsley' via Prometheus Users < [email protected]> wrote: > I'm trying to configure snmp-exporter with a PDU, using a lookup to label > each outlet with its human-readable name (outletName) by referencing its > outletIndex.
