I’d like to either modify, or extend an existing os (both the .yaml and .inc.php file).
We have a FiberSwitch chassis that supports modular cards for dwdm – mux/demux, pumps, oeos, etc and we want to graph everything we can for them. We have the MIBs.
This devices default (or first) sysObjectID is .1.3.6.1.2.1.1 which is the sysObjectID of the includes/definitions/fs-nmu.yaml and that works for basic health like fan state, power1 and 2 states.
For the OEO cards the sysObjectID is .1.3.6.1.4.1.40989 and there are a lot of optic values we would like to graph (x16).
I modified fs-nmu.yaml and the corresponding fs-nmu.inc.php temporarily and that gives me a warning of Warning: Your local git contains modified files, this could prevent automatic updates. in Libre.
What is the best practice to extend / modify these two files? Make changes, keep them, and reapply after an update, and ultimately it would be great to contribute to the community so submit a pull request?
Second part to the above, because the FiberSwitch device has many cards, is there a worry that the fs-nmu.inc.php becomes bloated with OIDs of all the different snmp-able values for all the different cards ^n for each optic etc. Is there a better way I am not aware of to accomplish this?
Thank you
