[Nagiosplug-help] Usage of check_hpasm

[AL Chow (LWHKG-S)]

Dear All,

            I got the solution finally and I hope this share can help
others. Here is my server environment:

Nagios Server: CentOS 5.3, Nagios 3.0.6, Nagios-plugins-1.4.13

Remote Host: HP Proliant, DL380(G2-G4), Win2003 SP2 / RHEL 3

 

Procedure (Nagios Server)

-------------------------------

1. install check_hpasm

2. install Net::SNMP & net-snmp

3. In console, type the following to test the connectivity:
/usr/local/nagios/libexec/check_hpasm -H CLIENT_IP -C  public -p -P 2c
-v -c 1:35/2:40 --ignore-fan-redundancy -i

4. In commands.cfg, Add the following:

            define command{

                                    command_name            check_hpasm

                                    command_line   $USER1$/check_hpasm
-H $HOSTADDRESS$ -C 

$ARG1$ -p -P 2c -v -c 1:48/2:48 -i --ignore-fan-redundancy

                                    }

5. In linux.cfg, add the following (change if difference in host_name or
address):

            define host{

                        use             linux-server   ; Inherit default
values from a template                                        

host_name       REMOTE_HOST     ; The name we're giving to this host

                        alias           Remote Host   ; A longer name
associated with the host

                        address         192.168.0.111      ; IP address
of the host

        }

 

            define service{

                                    use
generic-service

                                    host_name
REMOTE_HOST

                                    service_description         Hardware
Status

                                    check_command
check_hpasm!public

                                    }

 

Procedure (Remote Host)

-------------------------------

1. Install HP Advance System Management

2. Install HP Insight Management Agents

3. Enable SNMP with community and allow Nagios Server to access

 

===============================================================

After that, we should be able to monitor the following hardware status:

 

-        Every CPU,IO Board, Power Supply temperature

-        Dimm Status (RAM)

-        Fan Speed

-        Power Supply

-        RAID Status

Also, System Model, Serial No. & ROM version. 

 

P.S. Next, I'd try to monitor the IBM X Series server, once I got the
solution. I'll update all of you.

Good Luck !

 

Thanks,

AL Chow

Hi All,

      I have setup a Nagios Server in CentOS, and make use of NSClient
with check_nt. It is now work properly. As I know that if I need to
monitor the following items of HP Proliant DL380 server(Win2003), I need
to use check_hpasm.

My question is:

1. What is the sample command (commands.cfg) I need to key in server
side?

2. Any agent or SNMP program that I need to install in HP DL380?

 

P.S. I got some information from this URL, but it did not have any
instruction.
