1 | 3.7.8 2012-12-12 |
2 | ------------------ | |
3 | ||
4 | * Fixed a regression regarding un-certified physical disks in "Ready" | |
5 | state (e.g. hot-spare) when using the blacklisting keyword | |
6 | "pdisk_cert" | |
7 | * Added an option "--snmp-timeout" which allows setting the SNMP | |
8 | object timeout for the Net::SNMP perl module | |

10 | 3.7.7 2012-12-06 |
11 | ------------------ | |
12 | ||
13 | * Small fixes in PNP template | |
14 | * Fixed handling of functional but uncertified disks (Matthew Kent) | |
15 | * Fixed regression for pdisk cert on old hardware/OMSA | |
16 | * Reverse pdisk cert for OMSA 7.1.0 via SNMP, this works around an | |
17 | OMSA SNMP bug | |
18 | * Shortened a lot of reporting messages to make things more consistent | |
19 | * Rewritten logic on reporting pdisks | |
20 | * RPM spec: Fix docbook pkg name for suse | |
21 | * Added new special case for controller batteries | |

23 | 3.7.6 2012-06-28 |
24 | ------------------ | |
25 | ||
26 | * Support for PCI attached storage (new in OMSA 7.0.0) was added | |
27 | * Support was added for negative temperature readings and thresholds | |
28 | from temp probes | |
29 | * Fix for physical disk check. If a disk was marked as predictive | |
30 | failure, and also had other failure conditions of a more severe | |
31 | nature, check_openmange only reported the predictive failure | |
32 | state. This has been fixed so that the most severe failure takes | |
33 | precedence. | |
34 | * The iDRAC6 and iDRAC7 controllers was identified via SNMP using | |
35 | integer values that are not defined in the MIB. This resulted in | |
36 | internal error warnings if the '-o' option was used. The plugin now | |
37 | defines these integer identifiers even though they are undocumented | |
38 | in the MIB. | |
39 | * The PNP template now contains comments which identifies which plugin | |
40 | version it was built for. | |
41 | * The manual pages were revised and completely rewritten from perl POD | |
42 | to Docbook XML format. | |

0804d814 THA |
45 | ------------------ |
46 | ||
47 | * A bug was fixed which could lead to perl warnings when either of the | |
48 | options '--tempunit' or '--fahrenheit' was used. | |
14ec9cd1 THA |
49 | * A workaround was added for an SNMP bug in OMSA 7.0.0 related to the |
50 | "firmwareType" OID for iDRAC6 management cards. | |
51 | * A bug was fixed for a corner case where the temperature probe | |
52 | readings for storage enclosures were empty. Previously, this could | |
53 | produce perl warnings (internal errors). | |

07a09c16 | 56 | ------------------ |
57 | ||
58 | * Allow "2c" to be specified as SNMP version via command line and | |
59 | config file option. Patch from Oskar Liljeblad. | |
707bda92 | 60 | * Corrected a typo for the '--config' command line option |
6fffa477 | 61 | * Added check for 'servicetag', checks whether the servicetag is sane |
ec6d1c88 | 62 | (i.e. not empty, "unknown" or other bogus value). Thanks to Xavier |
63 | Bachelot for a patch. | |
93ac0a8a | 64 | * fix warranty info link with '-I' or '--htmlinfo' option wrt. new |
65 | layout on support.dell.com | |
07a09c16 | 66 | |
82baceb5 | 67 | 3.7.3 2011-10-05 |
68 | ------------------ | |
69 | ||
70 | * If the option -I or --htmlinfo was used, the OK output would be | |
71 | printed two times. This has been fixed so the OK output is now | |
72 | correct for HTML output. | |
73 | * A bug was fixed for config file parsing, if the plugin was used in | |
74 | local mode (i.e. no hostname specified). Reported by David Jones. | |
d40f7b4c | 75 | * Distribution now includes an example configuration file, contributed |
76 | by Xavier Bachelot | |
82baceb5 | 77 | |
4102b4c3 | 78 | 3.7.2 2011-09-19 |
b6302b14 | 79 | ------------------ |
80 | ||
81 | * Added a new option '--hide-servicetag' to censor the servicetag in | |
82 | the plugin output. A corresponding config file option | |
83 | 'output_hide_servicetag' was created. Thanks to Sebastian Ahndorf | |
84 | for a patch. | |
d95874bb | 85 | * SNMP: Fixed bug in amperage probes perfdata output when one or more |
86 | PSUs has lost power, which could cause garbled graphs. | |
b6302b14 | 87 | |
96fae211 | 88 | 3.7.1 2011-08-22 |
b1315819 | 89 | ------------------ |
90 | ||
96fae211 | 91 | * Added new blacklisting keyword 'pdisk_foreign' to suppress warnings |
92 | about foreign physical disks | |
b1315819 | 93 | * SNMP: Get the controller number right when reporting issues with the |
94 | controller cache battery | |
96fae211 | 95 | * Various minor tweaks and bugfixes in the PNP4Nagios template |
b1315819 | 96 | |
b50e2e00 | 97 | 3.7.0 2011-08-15 |
048ec497 | 98 | ------------------ |
99 | ||
85b838f9 | 100 | * Major overhaul of the perfdata code. This includes API breakage and |
101 | fixes the following: | |
102 | - Probes were not sorted correctly | |
103 | - Voltage data was not included | |
104 | * The PNP template check_openmanage.php has been redone to work with | |
105 | the changes in perfdata output from the plugin | |
c2228ce1 | 106 | * A new option '--legacy-perfdata' will make the the plugin output the |
107 | performance data in the old format | |
48474e68 | 108 | * Added support for a configuration file |
b50e2e00 | 109 | * Added manual page for the configuration file |
fcf2d566 | 110 | * If using html output, URLs will now open in a new window |
111 | * Added a compatibility fix for OMSA 6.5.0, related to performance | |
fe143ea0 | 112 | data for amperage probes when the plugin is used in local |
113 | mode. Thanks to Benedikt Meyer for a patch. | |
17662b7c | 114 | |
115 | 3.6.8 2011-06-07 | |
116 | ------------------ | |
117 | ||
ea5d05e5 | 118 | * Added workaround for a rare condition in which blade detection fails |
119 | because the chassis IDs for the blade and interconnect board have | |
120 | switched places in the BaseBoardType SNMP table. | |
48474e68 | 121 | |
8f6ce341 | 122 | 3.6.7 2011-05-12 |
81ae71ab | 123 | ------------------ |
124 | ||
125 | * A regression wrt. non-certified drives were fixed. The plugin failed | |
126 | to identify non-certified physical drives via SNMP. | |
bf2e7166 | 127 | * Added the ability to blacklist non-certified drives with the |
128 | 'pdisk_cert' blacklisting keyword. | |
81ae71ab | 129 | |
48474e68 | 130 | 3.6.6 2011-04-28 |
131 | ------------------ | |
132 | ||
133 | * Fixed typo in help output | |
134 | * SD card check is now included if the parameter '--only chassis' is | |
135 | specified | |
136 | * The plugin will issue a proper warning if a physical drive is | |
137 | uncertified, instead of an unspecified warning. One or more | |
138 | uncertified drives will make the controller go into a non-critical | |
139 | (warning) state. | |
b36cc3ed | 140 | * Slightly improved reporting of fan status |
199f001b | 141 | * Exit with value 3 (unknown) if printing debug, help or version |
48474e68 | 142 | info. This is considered best practice for Nagios plugins. |
8b5b7f77 | 143 | * Workaround added for logical SAS connectors to external storage |
48474e68 | 144 | enclosures, when using check_openmanage in local mode with OMSA |
145 | 6.4.0 or later versions. The output from omreport could contain | |
146 | lines that the plugin was unable to parse, which would lead to | |
147 | internal errors. | |
048ec497 | 148 | |
c6c97f52 | 149 | 3.6.5 2011-02-09 |
528b54ed | 150 | ------------------ |
151 | ||
152 | * Fix counting of components when blacklisting is used. Components | |
153 | should be counted even if blacklisted | |
154 | * Added some unsupported vdisk types to the list. The OMSA MIB | |
155 | identifies these, but lists them as unsupported. | |
156 | * Added option '-B' or '--show-blacklist' to show any blacklistings in | |
157 | the OK output | |
158 | * Fixed a bug for checking voltage probes, if the reading is missing | |
159 | via SNMP. | |
a58672df | 160 | * Fixed a regression bug for a power monitoring corner case. |
528b54ed | 161 | |
c98e3298 | 162 | 3.6.4 2011-01-04 |
163 | ------------------ | |
164 | ||
165 | * Added more robustness wrt. values from OMSA obtained via SNMP, to | |
166 | avoid internal errors where non-important values are missing. | |
167 | ||
c9ffa70e | 168 | 3.6.3 2010-12-13 |
169 | ------------------ | |
170 | ||
171 | * A few compatibility fixes for OMSA 6.4.0 were added. | |
172 | ||
173 | 3.6.2 2010-11-25 | |
d57c3cb0 | 174 | ------------------ |
175 | ||
176 | * Added support for IPv6 when checking via SNMP. IPv6 can be turned on | |
177 | with the option '-6' or '--ipv6'. The default is IPv4 if the option | |
178 | is not present. | |
179 | * Added support for TCP when checking vis SNMP. The option '--tcp' can | |
180 | be used to turn on TCP. The default transport protocol is UDP if the | |
181 | option is not present. | |
df17fc3c | 182 | * The mode of operation (local or SNMP) is shown in the debug |
183 | output. If SNMP is used, the debug output will also show the SNMP | |
184 | protocol version, IP version and transport protocol (UDP or TCP). | |
c9ffa70e | 185 | * Amperage probe status via SNMP is of type "probe status", not |
186 | regular status. This has been fixed. | |
187 | * Massive overall robustness improvements to handle OMSA bugs where | |
188 | some information from OMSA is missing. | |
189 | * Memory module enumeration via SNMP changed somewhat to reflect | |
190 | enumeration provided by omreport. This ensures that the plugin's | |
191 | output is identical in SNMP or local mode wrt. dimms IDs. | |
192 | * Fan enumeration via SNMP changed somewhat to reflect enumeration | |
193 | provided by omreport. This ensures that the plugin's output is | |
194 | identical in SNMP or local mode wrt. fan IDs. | |

b49f8fda | 196 | 3.6.1 2010-11-02 |
2254d3c5 | 197 | ------------------ |
198 | ||
199 | * Included new check for SD cards. Newer servers such as the R710 can | |
200 | have SD cards installed, these should be monitored. The SD card | |
201 | check is on by default. A new blacklisting keyword 'sd' has been | |
202 | added. The SD card check can be turned off with '--check sdcard=0'. | |
203 | * Handle special cases where power monitoring capability is disabled | |
204 | due to non-redundant and/or non-instrumented power supplies. | |
205 | * For physical disks probed via SNMP, check that values for vendor, | |
206 | product ID and capacity is available before attempting to display | |
207 | those values. | |
208 | * If a physical disk is in sufficiently bad condition, the vendor | |
209 | field reported by OMSA may be empty. The plugin now handles this | |
210 | situation without throwing an internal error. | |
211 | ||
212 | ||
84079ac7 | 213 | 3.6.0 2010-08-30 |
214 | ------------------ | |
215 | ||
216 | * Storage is no longer allowed to be absent. If the plugin doesn't | |
217 | find a storage controller, it will give an alert. For diskless | |
218 | systems or servers without a Dell controller that OMSA recognizes | |
219 | you will now have to specify '--no-storage' or '--check storage=0' | |
220 | to work around this. | |
221 | * Report the system revision (if applicable) wherever the model name | |
222 | is printed. E.g. "PowerEdge 2950 III" instead of "PowerEdge 2950". | |
223 | * Small change in search path for omreport: The new location for OMSA | |
224 | 6.2.0 and later on Linux will be attempted first. | |
225 | * Small bugfix for the '--check' parameter, if the argument is a | |
226 | filename. The file could not contain a linebreak, this has been | |
227 | fixed. | |
228 | * Added an option '--no-storage', which is equivalent to the general | |
229 | option '--check storage=0'. | |
230 | ||
231 | ||
5ee885c1 | 232 | 3.5.10 2010-07-14 |
233 | ------------------ | |
234 | ||
235 | * If a physical disk is a hot spare, display this information in | |
236 | the debug output | |
237 | * Report the bus protocol (e.g. SAS, SATA) and media type (e.g. HDD, | |
238 | SDD) for physical disks in the debug output, if applicable | |
239 | * Minor fix for 100GB physical disks, write "100GB" instead of "99GB" | |
240 | * SNMP: Use new features of OMSA 6.3.0 to display occupied and total | |
241 | slots in storage enclosures, if applicable. This information is not | |
242 | available with omreport and check_openmanage will not display this | |
243 | info in local mode. | |
244 | * SNMP: Added new processor IDs from the OMSA 6.3.0 MIBs | |
245 | * SNMP: Use connection tables in a proper way to determine controller | |
246 | and enclosure IDs, for use with physical disks and enclosure | |
247 | components (fan, temp sensors etc.). This fixes a long standing bug | |
248 | for servers with more than one controller, if checked via SNMP. | |
249 | * SNMP: Use the nexus ID as last resort to find the controller for | |
250 | physical disks. Workaround for older, broken OMSA versions. | |
251 | * SNMP: Identify enclosures (e.g. '2:0:0') properly so that the | |
252 | reporting with SNMP corresponds to the same report with omreport. | |
253 | * SNMP: added a couple of workarounds for pre-historic OMSA versions | |
254 | ||
255 | ||
9e56606a | 256 | 3.5.9 2010-06-29 |
257 | ------------------ | |
258 | ||
259 | * More fine-grained reporting of temperature warnings for enclosure | |
260 | temperature probes. | |
261 | * Max/min temperature limits for enclosure temp probes are reported in | |
262 | the debug output | |
263 | * Report enclosure temperature probes that are "Inactive" as ok | |
264 | * Don't try to print out the reading of enclosure temperature probes | |
265 | if the reading doesn't exist or is not an integer | |
266 | * Report enclosure EMMs that are "Not Installed" as ok, instead of | |
267 | critical | |
268 | * Corrected typo in the PNP4Nagios template | |
269 | ||
270 | ||
49958a98 | 271 | 3.5.8 2010-06-17 |
272 | ------------------ | |
273 | ||
274 | * Remove reporting of which controller a logical drive is "attached" | |
275 | to, since this information can't be reliably extracted via SNMP. | |
9e56606a | 276 | * Avoid collecting Lun ID via SNMP for virtual disks, we don't use it |
277 | * Report total memory and number of dimms in the ok output | |
278 | * Difference in reporting if amperage probes have discrete readings | |
279 | * Workaround for broken amperage probes | |
280 | * Added workaround for bad temperature probes that yields no reading | |
49958a98 | 281 | in SNMP mode |
9e56606a | 282 | * Get OMSA version via SNMP slightly more efficiently |
49958a98 | 283 | |
284 | ||
4723fc86 | 285 | 3.5.7 2010-03-19 |
88d0e634 | 286 | ------------------ |
287 | ||
288 | * Added robustness for received SNMP values that are not defined in | |
289 | the MIB. Instead of throwing a perl warning when this happens, the | |
290 | plugin will not report the undefined value. | |
291 | * Defined "Replacing" as a defined state for physical disks in SNMP | |
292 | mode, even though this state is not defined in the MIB. It is | |
293 | reported as such by omreport. | |
294 | * Physical disk brand/model is now reported when the state of the disk | |
295 | is "Rebuilding" or "Replacing". | |
4f5eca49 | 296 | * The state of a physical disk is reported in parentheses when |
88d0e634 | 297 | predictive failure is detected. It is useful to know if a disk is |
298 | online, offline, spare or even failed when predictive failure is | |
299 | reported. | |
300 | * Handling of physical disk predictive failure has been improved | |
301 | overall. | |
302 | * Refactoring of the perfdata code. In conformance with the plugin | |
303 | development guidelines, the UOM (unit of measure) previously | |
304 | reported in the perfdata output has been removed. | |
305 | * The -p or --perfdata option now | |
306 | takes an optional agrument 'minimal', which triggers shorter names | |
307 | for the perfomance data labels. This shortens the output and is a | |
308 | workaround for systems where the amount of output exceeds the 1024 | |
309 | char limit of NRPE. | |
310 | * The PNP4Nagios template has been updated. Users of check_openmanage | |
311 | and PNP4Nagios are advised to upgrade. This version of | |
312 | check_openmanage needs the new template. | |
88f7c874 | 313 | * Lots of other small improvements and updates. |
88d0e634 | 314 | |
315 | ||
77ae1787 | 316 | 3.5.6 2010-02-23 |
317 | ------------------ | |
318 | ||
319 | * New option '--use-get_table' is added as a workaround for SNMPv3 on | |
320 | Windows using net-snmp. This option will make check_openmanage use | |
321 | the Net::SNMP function get_table() instead of get_entries() to | |
322 | collect information via SNMP. | |
323 | * Include a blacklisting option 'ctrl_pdisk' which takes the | |
324 | controller number as argument. This blacklisting option only works | |
325 | with omreport and is a workaround for broken disk firmwares that | |
326 | contain illegal XML characters. These characters makes openmanage | |
327 | barf and exit with an error. Patch from Bas Couwenberg. | |
328 | * If the blacklisting keyword "all" is supplied for a component type, | |
329 | that component type is not checked at all, i.e. the commands are | |
330 | never executed. This will make check_openmanage execute faster if | |
331 | blacklisting is heavily used. | |
332 | * Option '--htmlinfo' now has a shorter equivalent '-I' | |
333 | * The option '--short-state' now has a shorter equivalent '-S' | |
334 | ||
335 | ||
a37a38e4 | 336 | 3.5.5 2010-01-22 |
75c0ce0f | 337 | ------------------ |
338 | ||
339 | * Fixed an SNMP bug where the plugin didn't handle OID indexes that | |
a37a38e4 | 340 | were not sequential. Thanks to Gianluca Varenni for reporting. |
75c0ce0f | 341 | * Fixed an SNMP bug when checking old hardware such as the PE 2650 and |
342 | PE 750. The controller id for physical drives were collected and | |
343 | displayed incorrectly. This release uses an additional OID to fetch | |
a37a38e4 | 344 | this info, which would otherwise be unavailable. Thanks to Gianluca |
345 | Varenni for reporting this bug. | |
346 | * Should use %snmp_probestatus, not %snmp_status when checking the | |
347 | status of voltage probes. Thanks to Ken McKinlay for a patch. | |
348 | * Fix when identifying blades via SNMP with very old OMSA | |
349 | versions. Patch from Ken McKinlay. | |
350 | * Better way of finding the ID of physical drives via SNMP | |
351 | ||
75c0ce0f | 352 | |
ba53af74 | 353 | 3.5.4 2010-01-13 |
354 | ------------------ | |
355 | ||
356 | * Added support for storport driver version for controllers, only | |
357 | applicable on servers running Windows. A new blacklisting keyword | |
358 | for suppressing storport driver messages was added. | |
879782a8 | 359 | * The "all" keyword in blacklisting is now case insensitive. |
ba53af74 | 360 | * More fine-grained reporting in the rare case where a controller |
07acfb60 | 361 | battery fails during learning and charging states. |
ba53af74 | 362 | * New improved way of reporting perl warnings during execution of the |
363 | plugin. | |
364 | ||
365 | ||
366 | 3.5.3 2009-12-17 | |
367 | ------------------ | |
368 | ||
369 | * Fix for path to omreport on Linux with OMSA 6.2.0 | |
370 | * A couple of other small fixes | |
371 | ||
372 | ||
cd34f3e7 | 373 | 3.5.2 2009-11-17 |
374 | ------------------ | |
375 | ||
376 | * Fix for undefined device name for logical drives (thanks to Pontus | |
377 | Fuchs for a patch) | |
378 | * Fixed a bug in the PNP4Nagios template, that prevented the template | |
379 | from working with PNP4Nagios 0.6. Thanks to the PNP4Nagios team for | |
380 | the fix. | |
381 | * Other small fixes | |
382 | ||
c9cde537 | 383 | 3.5.1 2009-10-22 |
d4c29457 | 384 | ------------------ |
385 | ||
386 | * CPU type, family etc. are now reported in case of a CPU failure (and | |
387 | in the debug output) | |
388 | * The debug output now reports Openmanage version and plugin version | |
389 | ||
390 | ||
c10216b6 | 391 | 3.5.0 2009-10-13 |
a4e4d852 | 392 | ------------------ |
393 | ||
394 | * New option '-a' or '--all' turns on checking of everything | |
395 | * The manual page (POD info) is removed from the script and is now in | |
396 | a separate file, to make check_openmanage fully ePN compatible | |
397 | * ePN is no longer disabled by default, check_openmanage no longer has | |
398 | an opinion on whether it should run under ePN or not | |
399 | * The '-m' or '--man' option is no longer available | |
02babec6 | 400 | * The option '-v' or '--verbose' is renamed to '-d' or '--debug', |
401 | which makes more sense wrt. its usage | |
a4e4d852 | 402 | * The '-g' or '--global' option is removed. Checking the global health |
403 | status is now default if applicable | |
404 | * Checking intrusion detection is now turned on by default | |
5cb5973b | 405 | * The obsolete option '--snmp' is removed |
a4e4d852 | 406 | * The option '--state' now has a shorter equivalent '-s' |
407 | * The basename stuff and options '--only-critical' and | |
408 | '--only-warning' are now replaced by an option '--only' | |
409 | * If plugin is run by Nagios, redirect stderr to stdout | |
02babec6 | 410 | * Added option '--omreport', that lets the user specify the full path |
411 | to the omreport binary | |
5cb5973b | 412 | * Added non-8bit-legacy default search paths for omreport.exe for |
413 | Windows boxen | |
414 | * Minor changes to the plugin output, for consistency | |
2fdf5f00 | 415 | * New blacklisting keyword 'bat_charge' disables warning messages |
ca98fb52 | 416 | related to controller cache battery charging. Thanks to Robert |
417 | Heinzmann for a patch. | |
ce662ba2 | 418 | * For blacklisting, the component ID kan now be "ALL", in which all |
419 | components of that type is blacklisted. | |
945f527c | 420 | * Man page is moved to manual section 8 |
421 | ||
a4e4d852 | 422 | |
423 | 3.4.9 2009-08-07 | |
424 | ------------------ | |
425 | ||
426 | * Fixed a bug that could cause errors and weird results when checking | |
427 | cooling devices (fans) via SNMP. Thanks to Ken McKinlay for spotting | |
428 | this bug and reporting it. | |
429 | ||
430 | 3.4.8 2009-07-31 | |
431 | ------------------ | |
432 | ||
433 | * For failed physical drives, check_openmanage will now output the | |
434 | drive's vendor, model and size in GB or TB. | |
435 | ||
436 | 3.4.7 2009-07-24 | |
437 | ------------------ | |
438 | ||
439 | * The -s|--snmp option was redundant and no longer does anything. SNMP | |
440 | is triggered automatically if the -H|--hostname option is | |
441 | present. The -s|--snmp option is kept for compatibility, but has no | |
442 | effect. | |
443 | ||
444 | 3.4.6 2009-07-07 | |
445 | ------------------ | |
446 | ||
447 | * Added support for performance data (temperatures) from attached | |
448 | storage enclosures such as the MD1000 | |
449 | ||
450 | 3.4.5 2009-06-22 | |
451 | ------------------ | |
452 | ||
453 | * Fixed a regression in the --htmlinfo option when it is not supplied | |
454 | with an argument | |
455 | ||
456 | 3.4.4 2009-06-22 | |
457 | ------------------ | |
458 | ||
459 | * New option --htmlinfo adds clickable HTML links in the plugin's | |
460 | output | |
461 | ||
462 | 3.4.3 2009-06-11 | |
463 | ------------------ | |
464 | ||
465 | * Fixed a regression bug in CPU and power supply reporting that only | |
466 | affects verbose output | |
467 | * If blacklisting is used, the global health check (via the --global | |
468 | option) is now negated. Checking the global health doesn't make | |
469 | sense when one or more components is blacklisted. Thanks to Rene | |
470 | Beaulieu for reporting this bug | |
471 | * The PNP4Nagios template is now included in the tarball and zip | |
472 | archive | |
473 | ||
474 | 3.4.2 2009-06-03 | |
475 | ------------------ | |
476 | ||
477 | * Improved memory error reporting, when using omreport | |
478 | * Collect performance data from pwrmonitoring (amperage probes) that | |
479 | were previously ignored when using omreport | |
480 | ||
481 | 3.4.1 2009-05-25 | |
482 | ------------------ | |
483 | ||
484 | * Improved memory error reporting, when using SNMP | |
485 | * Other small ehnancements | |
486 | ||
487 | 3.4.0 2009-05-25 | |
488 | ------------------ | |
489 | ||
490 | * The plugin is now compatible with the Nagios embedded Perl | |
491 | interpreter (ePN) in theory. However, the plugin will not not use | |
492 | ePN by default. We don't want any "accidents". | |
493 | * License is now GPLv3, previously only specified as "GPL" | |
494 | * New options --only-critical and --only-warning. With these options | |
495 | the plugin will only print critical or warning alerts, respectively. | |
496 | * Bugfixes and speed enhancements in the storage section, when | |
497 | checking enclosure components via omreport | |
498 | * The --okinfo option is now less verbose and more to the point | |
499 | * Lots of code refactoring for readability, maintainability and | |
500 | robustness | |
501 | ||
502 | 3.3.2 2009-05-05 | |
503 | ------------------ | |
504 | ||
505 | * Fixed a bug in the storage section, when checking controllers. This | |
506 | is an obscure bug that only manifests itself in the odd case where a | |
507 | server has multiple controllers, and one of the controllers are | |
508 | missing some of the OIDs, in which case these OIDs will be missing | |
509 | for the other controllers as well. The change is minor and only | |
510 | includes using get_table() instead of get_entries() to collect the | |
511 | SNMP result. Thanks to Stephan Bovet for reporting this bug. | |
512 | ||
513 | 3.3.1 2009-04-28 | |
514 | ------------------ | |
515 | ||
516 | * The --perfdata option can now optionally take an argument | |
517 | "multiline", which makes the plugin produce multiline performance | |
518 | data output in a Nagios 3.x way. Not really needed, but the plugin | |
519 | output is prettier. | |
520 | * Added comment within the 10 first lines to disable the nagios | |
521 | embedded perl (ePN) interpreter by default for Nagios 3.x | |
522 | * Improvements in the performance data output. Units are now included | |
523 | ||
524 | 3.3.0 2009-04-07 | |
525 | ------------------ | |
526 | ||
527 | * Added --global option, which turns on checking of everything. If | |
528 | used with SNMP, the global system health status is also probed, to | |
529 | protect the user against bugs in the plugin. If used with omreport, | |
530 | the overall chassis health is used. | |
531 | * Support for SNMP version 3 | |
532 | * New check added: esmhealth. This checks the overall health of the | |
533 | ESM log, i.e. the fill grade. More than 80% means a warning message | |
534 | * Fixed alert log reporting to use the same format as for the ESM log | |
535 | * Output messages are now sorted by severity | |
536 | * Minor changes in how out-of-date controller firmware/driver is | |
537 | reported | |
538 | * Code refactoring and cleanup | |
539 | ||
540 | 3.2.7 2009-03-29 | |
541 | ------------------ | |
542 | ||
543 | * Use "omreport about" to collect OMSA version. Slightly faster than | |
544 | "omreport system version". This should give a small speedup in | |
545 | certain configurations | |
546 | * Fixed typo in output when a logical drive is rebuilding. Thanks to | |
547 | Andreas Olsson for reporting | |
548 | * Improved reporting of ESM log content | |
549 | * Added omreport.sh as alternate omreport path | |
550 | * Lots of other small fixes and enhancements | |
551 | ||
552 | Plus: A few changes to make the plugin work with old PowerEdge models | |
553 | (e.g. 2550, 2450) and/or old OMSA versions (e.g. version 4.5): | |
554 | ||
555 | * Use the chassisModelName OID to determine if SNMP works (instead of | |
556 | BaseboardType) | |
557 | * No longer require a response when checking baseboard type via | |
558 | SNMP. If there is no response, we assume that we're not dealing with | |
559 | a blade server | |
560 | ||
561 | Thanks to Christian McHugh for help with testing and debugging this | |
562 | stuff | |
563 | ||
564 | 3.2.6 2009-03-05 | |
565 | ------------------ | |
566 | ||
567 | * Use 'omreport system operatingsystem' to collect OS info, instead of | |
568 | 'omreport system' version which is incredibly slow. This should speed | |
569 | things up in certain configurations. | |
570 | * A few speedups, don't collect information that isn't needed | |
571 | * Man page fixes | |
572 | ||
573 | 3.2.5 2009-02-24 | |
574 | ------------------ | |
575 | ||
576 | * New option --linebreak to specify the separator between line in case | |
577 | of multiline output | |
578 | * Added support for 64bit Windows. Thanks to Patrick Hemmen for a patch | |
579 | * [Patrick Hemmen] Added install.bat for Windows installation | |
580 | * [Patrick Hemmen] Improvements on install.sh. Will now install in | |
581 | /usr/lib64 for x86_64 | |
582 | * RPMs are now architecture dependent, because of different libdir | |
583 | ||
584 | 3.2.4 2009-02-17 | |
585 | ------------------ | |
586 | ||
587 | * New option -o|--ok-info to display extra information when everything | |
588 | is ok. The plugin can now display storage firmware and driver info, | |
589 | DRAC and BMC firmware, and OMSA version | |
590 | * Support for setting custom minimum temperature thresholds via the | |
591 | -c|--critical and -w|--warning options | |
592 | * Better and more detailed temperature error reporting | |
593 | * Bugfix in the amperage report (including performance data). The | |
594 | plugin now takes into account the correct unit and measurement for | |
595 | amperage probes (other than watts) | |
596 | * New option --port lets the user specify the remote SNMP port number | |
597 | ||
598 | 3.2.3 2009-02-09 | |
599 | ------------------ | |
600 | ||
601 | * Regression fix: Use the older Processor Device SNMP OIDs for older | |
602 | PowerEdge models, that don't have the new Processor Device Status | |
603 | OIDs. Thanks to Nicole Hähnel for reporting this bug. | |
604 | * Default output (when there are no alerts) now shows RAC firmware, | |
605 | BMC firmware, info about controllers and enclosures (firmware, | |
606 | driver). | |
607 | ||
608 | 3.2.2 2009-02-03 | |
609 | ------------------ | |
610 | ||
611 | * Regression fix: Ignore unoccupied CPU slots with SNMP probing. This | |
612 | fixes a bug introduced in versjon 3.2.1, which would output | |
613 | something like this if one or more CPU slots were empty: CPU 1 needs | |
614 | attention () | |
615 | ||
616 | 3.2.1 2009-02-03 | |
617 | ------------------ | |
618 | ||
619 | * Use Processor Device Status Table OIDs instead of Processor Device | |
620 | Table when checking CPUs via SNMP | |
621 | * Bugfix: don't report throttled CPUs as warnings when checking via | |
622 | SNMP (same as for checking locally) | |
623 | ||
624 | 3.2.0 2009-01-27 | |
625 | ------------------ | |
626 | ||
627 | * New options --state and --short-state for displaying service state | |
628 | along with the alert | |
629 | * Lots of small fixes for code readability and maintainability | |
630 | ||
631 | 3.1.1 2009-01-12 | |
632 | ------------------ | |
633 | ||
634 | * Support for running natively on Windows (using omreport.exe). Thanks | |
635 | to Peter Jestico for a patch. | |
636 | * Support for compiled Windows version, i.e. check_openmanage.exe is | |
637 | now a legal script name. | |
638 | * Exit with error if script basename is illegal/unknown | |
639 | * Various small fixes | |
640 | ||
641 | 3.1.0 2008-12-26 | |
642 | ------------------ | |
643 | ||
644 | * Use of alternate basenames for checking only one class of components | |
645 | * Added support for checking the ESM log via SNMP | |
646 | * Code refactoring for robustness and maintainability | |
647 | * Numerous small fixes and enhancements | |
648 | * Added install script in distribution tarball | |
649 | ||
650 | 3.0.2 2008-12-20 | |
651 | ------------------ | |
652 | ||
653 | * The script no longer aborts if it can't get system information via | |
654 | SNMP. Give a warning instead, as this is not a critical error | |
655 | * Increased robustness when checking controllers | |
656 | ||
657 | 3.0.1 2008-12-11 | |
658 | ------------------ | |
659 | ||
660 | * Man page fix in the 'check' section. Thanks to Ansgar Dahlen for | |
661 | reporting this. | |
662 | * Allow invalid command error from 'omreport chassis pwrmonitoring' | |
663 | * Various small fixes | |
664 | ||
665 | 3.0.0 2008-12-04 | |
666 | ------------------ | |
667 | ||
668 | * Use unique IDs for storage components with regard to blacklisting, | |
669 | which means that the blacklisting API has changed | |
670 | * Added checks for storage components: connectors (channels), | |
671 | enclosures, enclosure fans, enclosure power supplies, enclosure | |
672 | temperature probes and enclosure management modules (EMMs) | |
673 | * Improved verbose output | |
674 | * New option -t|--timeout for setting the plugin timeout | |
675 | * New option -w|--warning for setting custom temperature warning | |
676 | thresholds | |
677 | * New option -c|--critical for setting custom temperature critical | |
678 | thresholds | |
679 | * Option --check can no longer be specified in its short form (-c) | |
680 | * Code cleanup and improvements | |
681 | ||
682 | 2.1.1 2008-11-24 | |
683 | ------------------ | |
684 | ||
685 | * The workaround for the OMSA bug introduced in OMSA 5.5.0 didn't take | |
686 | multiple controllers into account. This has been fixed. | |
687 | ||
688 | 2.1.0 2008-11-19 | |
689 | ------------------ | |
690 | ||
691 | * New option -i|--info prefixes all alerts with the service tag | |
692 | * New option -e|--extinfo gives and extra line of output in case of an | |
693 | alert (model and service tag) | |
694 | * New option --postmsg lets the user specify a post message string, | |
695 | with info such as model, service tag etc. | |
696 | * Options -b|--blacklist and -c|--check can now be specified multiple | |
697 | times (actually quite useful) | |
698 | ||
699 | 2.0.9 2008-11-17 | |
700 | ------------------ | |
701 | ||
702 | * Slightly improved output for alerts on logical drives (vdisks) | |
703 | * Now shows a rebuilding physical disk as a warning, as this is | |
704 | usually accompanied by a degraded vdisk. Previous versions didn't | |
705 | show this at all (omreport classifies it as "OK"). | |
706 | ||
707 | 2.0.8 2008-11-14 | |
708 | ------------------ | |
709 | ||
710 | * Slightly improved output for charging controller batteries | |
711 | ||
712 | 2.0.7 2008-11-12 | |
713 | ------------------ | |
714 | ||
715 | * Bugfix for reporting physical drives with predictive failure (both | |
716 | via NRPE and SNMP) | |
717 | ||
718 | 2.0.6 2008-10-30 | |
719 | ------------------ | |
720 | ||
721 | * Fix bug in option handling (ambiguous options) | |
722 | * Slightly improved output if checking the storage subsystem is turned | |
723 | off | |
724 | * Don't complain if there are no logical drives. This is OK. Thanks to | |
725 | Jamie Henderson for reporting this | |
726 | ||
727 | 2.0.5 2008-10-29 | |
728 | ------------------ | |
729 | ||
730 | * Fix bug in SNMP status level table | |
731 | ||
732 | 2.0.4 2008-10-29 | |
733 | ------------------ | |
734 | ||
735 | * Added workaround for a BUG introduced in OpenManage 5.5.0. OM | |
736 | sometimes adds a newline in the controller driver version name, | |
737 | which leads to problems parsing the output. Thanks to Hiren Patel | |
738 | for bringing this to my attention. | |
739 | ||
740 | 2.0.3 2008-10-28 | |
741 | ------------------ | |
742 | ||
743 | * (snmp) Improved handling of cases where OM is not working properly | |
744 | ||
745 | 2.0.2 2008-10-27 | |
746 | ------------------ | |
747 | ||
748 | * Fixed issue where controller number for physical disks can't be | |
749 | established via SNMP (now identifies as controller no. -1) | |
750 | ||
751 | 2.0.1 2008-10-23 | |
752 | ------------------ | |
753 | ||
754 | * Correctly identifies and reports error condition in which OpenManage | |
755 | has stopped working (it happens) | |
756 | ||
757 | 2.0.0 2008-10-23 | |
758 | ------------------ | |
759 | ||
760 | * SNMP support | |
761 | * Same options for checking, blacklisting etc. supported with SNMP | |
762 | * Same output with SNMP as with NRPE | |
763 | ||
764 | 1.2.1 2008-09-25 | |
765 | ------------------ | |
766 | ||
767 | * Collects performance data if the option '-p' or '--perfdata' is | |
768 | supplied. | |
769 | * New blacklisting directives ctrl_fw and ctrl_driver | |
770 | added. Suppresses the "special" warning messages concerning outdated | |
771 | controller firmware and driver. Useful if you can't or won't | |
772 | upgrade. | |
773 | ||
774 | 1.1.2 2008-08-06 | |
775 | ------------------ | |
776 | ||
777 | * Fix getting system model and serial number for newer blades | |
778 | ||
779 | 1.1.1 2008-08-06 | |
780 | ------------------ | |
781 | ||
782 | * Three new checks added: | |
783 | - System battery probes (typical CMOS battery). Newer poweredge | |
784 | models have these | |
785 | - Power consumption monitoring (if the server supports it) | |
786 | - ESM log, with same functionality as the alert log check. Disabled | |
787 | by default. | |
788 | ||
789 | 1.1.0 2008-08-04 | |
790 | ------------------ | |
791 | ||
792 | * Internal refactoring: use ssv-formatted output from openmanage, | |
793 | resulting in slightly faster execution and increased robustness. | |
794 | * If /usr/bin/omreport doesn't exist, try | |
795 | /opt/dell/srvadmin/oma/bin/omreport. | |
796 | * Allow for no instrumented/redundant power supplies. Needed on | |
797 | low-end poweredge models and blades. | |
798 | ||
799 | 1.0.3 2008-07-25 | |
800 | ------------------ | |
801 | ||
802 | * Openmanage reports non-critical warning about throttled CPUs on new | |
803 | hardware models. Most og us use ondemand CPU frequency scaling (with | |
804 | throttled CPUs as a result). This specific non-critical warning (CPU | |
805 | Throttled) is ignored from now on. | |
806 | * Remove superfluous Celcius sign when reporting temperatures. | |
807 | ||
808 | 1.0.2 2008-07-25 | |
809 | ------------------ | |
810 | ||
811 | * Accommodate blade systems with no fans or powersupplies, i.e. accept | |
812 | errors from omreport when trying to check fans or powersupplies on | |
813 | blade servers. | |
814 | * Accommodate newer hardware with slightly different omreport | |
815 | options. Use the newer options if they exist. Not really necessary | |
816 | yet, but deprecated options may be removed in future versions of | |
817 | Dell OpenManage. | |
818 | ||
819 | 1.0.1 2008-07-18 | |
820 | ------------------ | |
821 | ||
822 | * When everything is OK, check_openmanage now outputs the same info as | |
823 | Gerhard Lausser's excellent check_hpasm plugin does for HP servers: | |
824 | ||
825 | OK - System: 'poweredge 2850', S/N: 'XXXXXXX', ROM: 'A06 | |
826 | 10/03/2006', hardware working fine, 2 logical drives, 4 physical | |
827 | drives | |
828 | ||
829 | 1.0.0 2008-07-15 | |
830 | ------------------ | |
831 | ||
832 | * Initial release |
