Nagios Support Forum

Hi,

I'm facing big trouble trying to get the CPU Temperature from a Dell PowerEdge T410.
I tried a lot of plugins and OID's and all stuff that i could try in nagios.
I have all services i want running ok but the CPU Temperature.

Can U guys give me some help? i already have Openmanage installed in my Dell server.

The last plugin i tried was that http://exchange.nagios.org/directory/Pl ... re/details

Thx a lot.

felipe,

What is the problem you faced with the last plugin you tried? was the plugin returning incorrect results?

This is the plugin we use for monitoring the hardware health of our dell servers: http://folk.uio.no/trondham/software/ch ... anage.html it's been pretty good so far.

I think you can whitelist it to only do specific checks so you could probably get it to only check CPU temp.

I'd like to thank all U mainly jsmurphy.

i've been trying for days without sucess until now.

The plugin worked perfectly in my Dell PowerEdge T410.

I'm getting the CPU temp of my DC (windows server 2008 R2) with the following command:

/usr/lib/nagios/plugin/check_openmanage --only temp -H $HOSTADDRESS$ -C $COMMUNITY$ -p 12489 -w 42 -c 47

if U'd like to get rpm fans try it

/usr/lib/nagios/plugin/check_openmanage --only fans -H $HOSTADDRESS$ -C $COMMUNITY$ -p 12489

Hope it be helpful for someone like was for me.

Thx a lot.

Sounds great, thanks for letting the community know what worked for you, there are quite a few system temperature questions and it is great to have a documented case.

Hello all;

I tried to modify the -w (warning) and -c (critical) figure to 10 and 17 respectively like below in order to test if the Nagios will send me an alert even the currently temperature reading on server is 17c which is normal. However, when I check the Nagios webpage, the monitor still shows "OK" status.

/usr/lib/nagios/plugin/check_openmanage --only temp -H $HOSTADDRESS$ -C $COMMUNITY$ -p 12489 -w 10 -c 17

Actually, how does the check_openmanage detect the status of temperature?

Found the correct syntax. I should use "0=" in front of the figure to custom the reading value.

/usr/lib/nagios/plugin/check_openmanage --only temp -H $HOSTADDRESS$ -C $COMMUNITY$ -p 12489 -w 0=10 -c 0=17
