| 4078196b | 26 | |
| 27 | check_openmanage is a plugin for Nagios which checks the hardware | |
| 28 | health of Dell PowerEdge and some PowerVault servers. It uses the Dell | |
| 29 | OpenManage Server Administrator (OMSA) software, which must be running | |
| 30 | on the monitored system. check_openmanage can be used remotely with | |
| 31 | SNMP or locally with NRPE, check_by_ssh or similar, whichever suits | |
| 32 | your needs and particular taste. The plugin checks the health of the | |
| 33 | storage subsystem, power supplies, memory modules, temperature probes | |
| 34 | etc., and gives an alert if any of the components are faulty or | |
| 35 | operate outside normal parameters. | |
| 36 | ||
| 37 | The plugin can give performance data with the '-p' or '--perfdata' | |
| 38 | switch. Performance data collected include temperatures, fan speeds | |
| 39 | and power usage (on servers that support it). | |
| 40 | ||
| 41 | Storage components checked: | |
| 42 | ||
| 43 | * Controllers | |
| 44 | * Physical drives | |
| 45 | * Logical drives | |
| 46 | * Cache batteries | |
| 47 | * Connectors (channels) | |
| 48 | * Enclosures | |
| 49 | * Enclosure fans | |
| 50 | * Enclosure power supplies | |
| 51 | * Enclosure temperature probes | |
| 52 | * Enclosure management modules (EMMs) | |
| 53 | ||
| 54 | Chassis components checked: | |
| 55 | ||
| 56 | * Processors | |
| 57 | * Memory modules | |
| 58 | * Cooling fans | |
| 59 | * Temperature probes | |
| 60 | * Power supplies | |
| 61 | * Batteries | |
| 62 | * Voltage probes | |
| 63 | * Power usage | |
| 64 | * Chassis intrusion | |
| 1ea107b7 | 65 | * Removable flash media (SD cards) |
| 4ddcc6c2 | 66 | * Sane and not empty service tag (serial number) |
| 4078196b | 67 | |
| 68 | Other: | |
| 69 | ||
| 70 | * ESM Log health | |
| 71 | * ESM Log content (default disabled) | |
| 72 | * Alert Log (default disabled, not SNMP) | |
| 73 | ||
| 74 | check_openmanage will identify blades and will not report "missing" | |
| 75 | power supplies, cooling fans etc. on blades. It will also accept that | |
| 76 | other components are "missing", unless for components that should be | |
| 77 | present in all servers. For example, all servers should have at least | |
| 78 | one temperature probe, but not all servers have logical drives | |
| 79 | (depends on the type and configuration of the controller). | |
| 80 | ||
| 81 | This nagios plugin is designed to be used by either NRPE or with | |
| 82 | SNMP. It is written in perl. In NRPE mode, it uses omreport to display | |
| 83 | status on various hardware components. In SNMP mode, it checks the | |
| 84 | same components as with omreport. Output is parsed and reported in a | |
| 85 | Nagios friendly way. | |
