[Nut-upsuser] Powerware 9155 with SNMP card

Hi,

I got a shiny pair of new PowerWare 9155 UPS (3 input phaes, one output
phase), running parallel. Since I didn't want to install a Windows box
to run Powerwares software I now went nut(s) ;-)
So far things look pretty good, snmp-ups talks to both ups using the pw
mib. Though I get these messages, when I start the driver:

[ups2] nut_snmp_get: 1.3.6.1.4.1.534.1.4.4.1.3: Error in packet:
(noSuchName) There is no such variable name in this MIB.
[ups2] nut_snmp_get: 1.3.6.1.4.1.534.1.3.4.1.4.1: Error in packet:
(noSuchName) There is no such variable name in this MIB.
[ups2] nut_snmp_get: 1.3.6.1.4.1.534.1.3.4.1.4.2: Error in packet:
(noSuchName) There is no such variable name in this MIB.
[ups2] nut_snmp_get: 1.3.6.1.4.1.534.1.3.4.1.4.3: Error in packet:
(noSuchName) There is no such variable name in this MIB.

The first one is supposed to be PW_OID_OUT_CURRENT according to pwmib.h
Does this message mean that the ups isn't reporting this value?

The other three are completely missing in pwmib.h 
Does the UPS report these values and NUT does't know what to do with
them? 1.3.6.1.4.1.534.1.3.4.1.4 should be PW_OID_IN_POWER
(xupsInputWatts). My guess would be that .1-.3 are the 3 input phases?

Could this be fixed in some way? Maybe the XUPS.mib from the cd has more
information. Though I only found xupsInputWatts in there as well.

Another thing I wonder about is that both UPS don't give me value for
battery.runtime.low and both give an ups.status "WAIT" although there
running fine.

Maybe someone can shed some light on these questions.

Cheers,
  Bernd
