    Description

      Dear Support team,

      Since the last stable update, we lost many of the status sensors, mainly, PSUs and FANs.

      As an example, F5 devices, and Avaya Switches.
      Cisco Routers still have them working fine.

      On the Avaya switches, I had a diff patch for them, which I can understand why they were gone as it was introduced a new discovery temperature sensor for them, but even after that I patch it again, the PSUs and FANs are still not being discovered back.

      Nevertheless, F5 discovery files are the original ones, and they are also gone anyhow.

      Could you please take a look on the Health discovery sensors?

      Best regards,

          [OBS-2877] Status Sensors (FANs, PSUs) are now missing

          Oh, I see. It looks like these two "status" indicators were migrated to the new "sensor" format by mistake!

          Should be fixed in r9671.

          Hi Adam,

          I just took a deeper look into this issue, and it seems the problem was introduced together with revision 9502.
          I added 1 of our F5 devices into our Rolling observium test server, and played back and forth with various revisions to see at what point did we lost the status indicators.

          Attached is now a sensor module discover (with and without debug flag) for both revisions 9501(status OK) and 9502 (status NOK).

          I hope this will help to figure out where the problem is.

          Best regards,

          These F5 status indicators (please don't use the term sensor for these, it's very confusing) are definition-based, so they shouldn't really have changed much since they were added 2 years ago.

          Output of ./discovery.php -h <host> -m sensors -d

          would probably be helpful.
