upsSmartControlSimulatePowerFail

Module: DGPUPS-MIB

OID (symbolic): DGPUPS-MIB::upsSmartControlSimulatePowerFail

OID (numeric): 1.3.6.1.4.1.17420.1.1.2.6.2.4

Node type: OBJECT-TYPE

Type: INTEGER

Access: read-write

Description: Setting this variable to simulatePowerFailure(2) causes the UPS switch to battery power.

Setting this value to noSimulatePowerFailure(1) has no effect.

The value noSimulatePowerFailure(1) will always be returned when the variable is read.

What is upsSmartControlSimulatePowerFail?

Writing simulatePowerFailure(2) forces the UPS to switch to battery power as if utility input had actually failed, letting an administrator test failover behavior and runtime without physically disconnecting power; reading the object always returns noSimulatePowerFailure(1). This is useful for periodic UPS testing without waiting for a real outage.

Examples

Walk all instances (SNMPv2c):

snmpwalk -v2c -c public <target> 1.3.6.1.4.1.17420.1.1.2.6.2.4
snmpwalk -v2c -c public <target> DGPUPS-MIB::upsSmartControlSimulatePowerFail

Get a specific instance (index 1):

snmpget -v2c -c public <target> 1.3.6.1.4.1.17420.1.1.2.6.2.4.1
snmpget -v2c -c public <target> DGPUPS-MIB::upsSmartControlSimulatePowerFail.1

Set instance 1 (SNMPv2c):

snmpset -v2c -c private <target> 1.3.6.1.4.1.17420.1.1.2.6.2.4.1 i <value>

SNMPv3 example:

snmpget -v3 -l authPriv -u snmpv3-user -a SHA -A "AuthPassword1" -x AES -X "PrivPassword1" <target> upsSmartControlSimulatePowerFail.1
