      The Cisco UCS and UCS manager templates are not monitoring some of the power supply states provided by Cisco.

      Here are the power supply states available according to https://github.com/cisco/cisco-mibs/blob/main/ucs-mibs/CISCO-UNIFIED-COMPUTING-TC-MIB.my

       

      CucsEquipmentOperability ::= TEXTUAL-CONVENTION
          STATUS        current
          DESCRIPTION
              ""
          SYNTAX        INTEGER
          {
              unknown(0),
              operable(1),
              inoperable(2),
              degraded(3),
              poweredOff(4),
              powerProblem(5),
              removed(6),
              voltageProblem(7),
              thermalProblem(8),
              performanceProblem(9),
              accessibilityProblem(10),
              identityUnestablishable(11),
              biosPostTimeout(12),
              disabled(13),
              malformedFru(14),
              backplanePortProblem(15),
              chassisIntrusion(16),
              fabricConnProblem(51),
              fabricUnsupportedConn(52),
              config(81),
              equipmentProblem(82),
              decomissioning(83),
              chassisLimitExceeded(84),
              notSupported(100),
              discovery(101),
              discoveryFailed(102),
              identify(103),
              postFailure(104),
              upgradeProblem(105),
              peerCommProblem(106),
              autoUpgrade(107),
              linkActivateBlocked(108)
          } 

       

      Of those, only the states "inoperable(2)" and "degraded(3)" are currently monitored by the official zabbix template.

      Multiple other states seem particularly important:

      powerProblem(5),
      removed(6),
      voltageProblem(7),
      thermalProblem(8) 

      powerProblem in this case means no power, the other are self-explanatory.
