That's sort of where I'm at, too. I've read the documentation on
Expanding JFFNMS for Creating a SNMP-based Interface, but I can't seem
to get it to work... and I'm confused about the relationship between
Interface Types, Poller Groups, Poller Items, and Poller Backends. I
think there's a pre-canned php-based backend that will do generic SNMP
status checks, but I'll be damned if I can figure out how it works.
http://jffnms.org/docs/expanding.html#id31
I'd like to have pro-active notification of our Dell server health;
waiting until someone walks into the server room and witnesses a
flashing orange light or hears a beeps seems a little pre-historic and
it would seem that JFFNMS + OpenManage could page and email me as it
happens instead.
If anyone's done this and wants to ship me a .sql dump of what's been
changed, that would be awesome.

I'm interested in this as well - I have been trying to retro-fit some of the
other generic SNMP discovery scripts that came with JFFNMS but to no avail,
mostly because I'm horrible with PHP.
I'm mostly doing this so that JFFNMS can monitor the temperature of our Dell
servers... I've gotten the servers to respond to the correct OID (meaning
openmanage is working) but I cannot get the discovery script working right
to find the interface and add it.

Greetings, List!
I am interested in being able to monitor additional interfaces using JFFNMS
and Dell OpenManage software. I can get the OpenManage software running on
my system and exposed via SNMP, but when I do a discovery of the host in
JFFNMS, I don't get any additional interfaces besides the normal disk, cpu,
process, memory, and network stuff that's available without OpenManage.
I believe that I need a custom poller to read the OpenManage-specific SNMP
data, but I've been too thick thus far to figure out how to do this on my
own. Does anyone have any pointers? Has anyone integrated JFFNMS to a
non-out-of-the-box SNMP interface, like OpenView or something? How much
money would make it worth while to Javier? ;-)
Any information would be greatly appreciated. We'd be happy being able to
know that we can get the detailed hardware status information that
OpenManage provides available in a NMS as fantastic and easy to use as
JFFNMS!
Thanks,
Ben Lentz
