Dell R540 Monitoring Issue

Hello there,

I´m trying to monitor our new VM Server from Dell R540. I´ll tried already some plugins:

check_sasraid_megaraid_18.pl
check_dell_openmanage.1.3.pl
check_dell_poweredge.sh

All of them are working but the OIDs in it are not there.

In the Openmanage plugin there is a buildin test function which shows that too:

Code: Select all

TEST MODE:
Trying all preconfigured Dell OID's against target...

Checked it also with snmpwalk an those OIDs are not available. Do I have to install there something else or why is this not working?

Danke

Is SNMP configured and enabled on the server? Can you snmpwalk from Nagios to the host?
You may want to set up an agent on the host rather than use SNMP.

Hi,

thank you for your reply.

SNMP is enabled and snmpwalk or get is no problem. I want to monitor the server via nrpe so the snmp query is executed on the server directly.
What agent do you mean? Is there a special software which is needed from Dell?

Thanks Thomas

If I was doing this I think I'd monitor via SNMP from the Nagios host, but if you want to use nrpe, that's fine. Nagios recommends ncpa over nrpe, BTW.
By agent I mean nrpe or ncpa.
