snmpGet (Source)

When To Use

Use snmpGet for scalar OIDs (single-value fetches), especially for host-level metadata or simple gauges.

If you need many columns from indexed objects, prefer snmpTable[1].

Syntax

sources:
  upsModel:
    type: snmpGet
    oid: 1.3.6.1.2.1.33.1.1.2.0

Properties

Property Required Default Description
type Yes None snmpGet.
oid Yes None Scalar OID to query.
executeForEachEntryOf No None Fan-out execution context.
computes No [] Post-processing pipeline.
forceSerialization No false Serialize execution via a per-connector, per-host lock (see the Sources overview). Default false.
  • Use for true scalar values only.
  • Group related scalar fetches logically and map directly.
  • Keep OID comments next to source definitions for maintainability.

Common Mistakes

  • Calling many scalar OIDs where one table OID would be cleaner.
  • Mixing scalar and indexed semantics in the same mapping logic.
  • Skipping translations for enumerated scalar values.
