How To Monitor HP and Hitachi SAN

[kbay]

Hi,
I am new to Nagios and need to Monitor my HP EVA 4400 and Hitachi HUS130 SAN. How can I set that up?
thank you!

There are many potential ways, depending on the device and what options are open to you. Have you taken a look at exchange.nagios.org and searched for your devices, or details you wish to monitor? Do you know if snmp is available, ssh, or a web interface?

Thank you. I found a potential plugin that may work with my HP EVA SAN: check_eva.py which uses the sssu command (on windows or linux) to communicate with Commandview EVA. I am going to try that.

I have had no luck so far in finding anything for my Hitachi HUS130 SAN system. SNMP is available on my SAN management server and it does have a web interface.

I would suggest looking for a mib from hitachi for that device, and finding relevant OIDs for information that you want to collect. Then you can use something like check_snmp to query that information for nagios. Let us know how it goes.
