This is an application for exporting cyberpower ups metrics to Prometheus.

First, install the CyberPower PowerPanel Personal Linux software: https://www.cyberpowersystems.com/product/software/power-panel-personal/powerpanel-for-linux/

Second, make sure you have python3 and pip3 installed. Then:

sudo pip3 install git+https://gitlab.com/shouptech/[email protected]

Installing as root is important. The application must run as root in order to access the cyberpower data.

You could simply run it as root like this:

sudo /usr/local/bin/cyberpower_exporter

But that would not be great because it wouldn't run in the background. If you're using systemd, it's easy to make a service.

Create the file /etc/systemd/system/cyberpower_exporter.service with these contents:

[Unit]
Description=CyberPower Exporter
After=network-online.target

[Service]
Type=simple
User=root
Group=root
ExecStart=/usr/local/bin/cyberpower_exporter
SyslogIdentifier=cyberpower_exporter
Restart=always

[Install]
WantedBy=multi-user.target

Then enable & start the service:

$ sudo systemctl daemon-reload
$ sudo systemctl enable cyberpower_exporter.service
Created symlink /etc/systemd/system/multi-user.target.wants/cyberpower_exporter.service → /etc/systemd/system/cyberpower_exporter.service.
$ sudo systemctl start cyberpower_exporter.service

If you have a firewall enabled, ensure you allow port 10100 through.

Test that it's working by running:

curl <ipaddress>:10100

Now go ahead and point prometheus to it!

• Created environment variable CYBERPOWER_EXPORTER_POLL_INTERVAL for adjusting polling interval.
• Moved input rating and output rating to prometheus gauges to make it easier to use those data points in dashboards.
