Re: [Nagios-users] SNMP Trap monitoring for Dell servers
Hello John, We are using poweredge servers ranging from the R3x0 series till R8x0 series. For the equallogic's and blade chassis we have some very nice plugins like the one you linked. The monitoring of the raid sets/disks is only needed for the poweredge servers as for the others we dont need the openmanage software anyway. Currently i am testing a debian server with the openmanage software to see how unstable it is but i am stuck at the key retrieval so i cannot say if we ever would start using the openmanage anyway.

Message-ID: 99b7b71f38f05ee1463ac6f1f43a9...@server1.emailn.de Content-Type: text/plain; charset=iso-8859-1 Hello Sven Which Docus did u use? Which version do you have Does the snmptt stuff working on a local ( localhost) level? if you can give me more infos i'm trying to help you best regards john Hello John, I used http://www.whiskey-tango-foxtrott.de/wiki/doku.php?id=linux:debian:snmpd as one of the docu's. Since I am not sure what you mean with the version, i am assuming you are talking about the debian machine. That is the last stable release of it. This goes for the snmptt and trapd aswell. Since the last mail i did figure out some stuff. It seems i dont even need snmptt to get the traps to work. I started the trapdeamon with the following command: snmptrapd -Oa -C -c /etc/snmp/snmptrapd.conf -Lf /tmp/log.log In the logs i noticed then that the traps where sending there own id (1001) along with the rest: 2012-07-17 08:20:44 192.168.103.5(via UDP: [192.168.0.5]:32768-[192.168.0.11]) TRAP, SNMP v1, community public SNMPv2-SMI::enterprises.3183.1.1 Enterprise Specific Trap (1001) Uptime: 434 days, 14:21:57.89 SNMPv2-SMI::enterprises.3183.1.1.1 = STRING: DELLK..T.S..O05J...ZH6.. !XEN01.. So i opened the snmptrapd.conf and i added the following lines: traphandle SNMPv2-SMI::enterprises.3183.1.1.0.1001 /usr/lib/nagios/plugins/handle-dell-openmanage-trap 1001 The script itself just checks the id and then gives nagios the notification that in this case its a test trap. What still is bothering me though is that there is no way to monitor the raid controller or hard disks from the idrac itself. Does anyone perhaps have a solution for that without the use of dell openmanage or the openmanage essentials software?

Re: [Nagios-users] SNMP Trap monitoring for Dell servers (onIDRACcards)
Hello Sven It's not clear what is working and whats not in your post. So first off all some questions and instructions and put on all debug logs in the snmptt config: 1. Does the trap appear in the unknown log? ( show me the whole trap) 2. does the trap appear in the debug snmptt handler log? 3. check your syslog and your /var/log/messages log 4. Does the check work with the default snmptt handler? 5. why you want to check with an other handler beside the default one? 6. do you work with the script submit check result? to send the trap to nagios? and if so does the local check work? Since the last mail i did figure out some stuff. It seems i dont even need snmptt to get the traps to work. It depends on which options does your script offer. if you do an test check this howto ( http://www.radium-networks.com/blog/nagios-snmp-3069/) and reconstruct the example on your system best regards john -- Live Security Virtual Conference Exclusive live event will cover all the ways today's security and threat landscape has changed and how IT managers can respond.

I explained this in the previous mailing what i did to fix it. The snmptt handler is completely skipped in my case as i let nagios handle them directly after they are recieved by snmptrapd. The only missing part is are the raid controllers/disks but it seems these are not available in the idrac.

I think the way over the bmc ( ipmi ) Would be better fit maybe the idrac has an own bmc and could be queried over ipmi best regards john -- Live Security Virtual Conference Exclusive live event will cover all the ways today's security and threat landscape has changed and how IT managers can respond.

Re: [Nagios-users] SNMP Trap monitoring for Dell servers
I think the way over the bmc ( ipmi ) Would be better fit maybe the idrac has an own bmc and could be queried over ipmi best regards john I figured out the ipmi monitoring aswell but also there is no raid monitoring on the dell servers. You can only check if the cable is still attached but not if a drive is failing. I know that on the sun servers this is possible with ipmi but dell decided to go the other way it seems. Thanks for the help though.

Re: [Nagios-users] SNMP Trap monitoring for Dell servers
Hello Sven Maybe it's a good idea to tell me which hardware you use in an more exactly way cause for example there is an plugin aviable for equallogic arrays ...: http://exchange.nagios.org/directory/Plugins/Hardware/Server-Hardware/Dell/Check-the-status-of-Dell-EqualLogic-storage/details well .
