hello,
how I've done to monitor a DELL PowerEdge 1800 RAID controller status thanks to zabbix.
Environment on dell PE 1800 : zabbix-agentd-1.1b9, CentOS-4.3/i386, kernel-2.6.9-34.106unsupportedsmp
Utility "omreport" comes from DELL OpenManage RPM "srvadmin-storage-4.5.0-335.i386.rpm" (some dependencies not showned here).
I suspect that omreport also needs the MegaRAID driver to work correctly (DELL RPM megaraid-v2.20.4.4-2dkms.i686.rpm for me).
zabbix-agentd.conf just contains:
# DELL Perc4 RAID controller: return 1 if OK, 0 otherwize
UserParameter=dellRAIDok,/usr/bin/omreport storage vdisk | /bin/fgrep 'State : Ready' |wc -l
For an unknown reason, unable to use "grep -c" : works only if echo 1 but NOT if echo 0 ...
If you want to have more details on a particular virtual disk, try to play with :
omreport storage adisk controller=0 vdisk=0
my .02 eur.
BTW, does someone know how to retrieve/monitor the temperature(s) ? I began to play with IPMI, but it's a nigthmare to understand and configure :(
