    HOWTO-tiny monitoring DELL PE 1800 RAID status

    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:

    Code:
    # 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 :

    Code:
    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
Working...
