Storage Monitoring IBM V7000

[raamardhani7]

Hi Team,

We are working on Storage devices monitoring for IBM V7000.

Gone through few of the posts and observed that SNMP is the only option, since we are not having direct plugins available for doing the same.

Can someone help me in setting up the monitoring, if you have MIB files for IBM V7000 please help me with that and also need initial setup steps. Thanks.

Regards,
Ram.

What do you need exactly?


Have you checked out this plugin?

We want to monitor Disk Failures, Ports, pool exceeding the threshold,host connectivity, Mirror sync etc..


Have you checked out this plugin?

I have copied the plugin and tried executing it, seems like there is some issue on our server related to perl, I am not having any idea on this subject. Could you please help me with the below error, after executing the command : ./check_ibm_v7000_svc.pl -h. I am facing the below error.

Code: Select all

perl check_ibm_v7000_svc.pl -h

You need to configure a ssh key without passphrase for logins to your V7000 storage array. Also IBM's SVC.pm Perl Module is required and available here:

I have verified that you can download the SVC.pm from the links here.
