ASA5545-X power supply monitoring with SNMP

Hi,

I'm trying to read the status of redundat power supplies on ASA5545-X. As far as I understood power status should be available using object "cefcFRUPowerOperStatus" with OID "1.3.6.1.4.1.9.9.117.1.1.2.1.2" from CISCO-ENTITY-FRU-CONTROL-MIB.

This object is included when listing objects with "show snmp-server oidlist" command on ASA. However there is no data returned when polling the object. Relevant item is also missing when searching OIDs with SNMP walk, there is only one item in 1.3.6.1.4.1.9.9.117 range as shown below.

OID=.1.3.6.1.4.1.9.9.109.1.2.4.1.3.1.1, Type=Gauge32, Value=1
OID=.1.3.6.1.4.1.9.9.117.1.3.1.0, Type=Integer, Value=2
OID=.1.3.6.1.4.1.9.9.147.1.1.1.1.0, Type=Gauge32, Value=0

Ideas why power status data is not available and how to get it?

- Some items could apply ; often low-end hardware models don't implement all the MIB-features. I don't know whether this applies to this model. Also is the ASA running a sufficient recent software version ?

Thanks for quick reply.

ASA is version 9.8(1), FRU MIB should be supported since version 8.4.

Anyone knows how to confirm if ASA5545-X hardware supports this feature? Power supply related items are shown with "show snmp-server oidlist" command on ASA, can it include also unsupported items?
