Monitoring DELL and HP hardware raid on remote sites with active agents

[achad937]

Hi
Please go easy with me i am new
I have several sites to monitor purely with windows servers Dell and HP I use active agents with encryption I can monitor services etc without issues inc Hyper-v replication status.
However I don't understand how to get the embedded hardware status details from the servers raid health etc ....I dont want to use SNMP for security reasons.

I have seen mention of scripts as both Dell and HP have cli's but wasn't sure were to start and was hoping somebody may have a working solution or ideas on this please

achad937 We monitor Hewlett Packard Servers with Zabbix in Active configuration mode as well. First Import the HP template below into your Zabbix Server and don't forget to check mark the Value Mappings when importing the template. Once done, place the scripts on the server in the same directory as your Zabbix config files. Then add the script information information into your Zabbix agent config file and restart the services.

Don't forget to ensure that the server you intend to monitor does have both the the HP Insight Management Monitoring Components installed (WBEM) and Microsoft Windows (SNMP WMI Provider).

Hope the links below work.

Hi, I'm a newbie too .. Wondering if there is a guide that i can setup to monitor RAID via active agent. Currently i'm only using HP DL SNMP template since this is out of the box and easy to setup. But since we may have limited IP addresses for ILO, that is why i was looking to monitoring RAID through Zabbix Agent 2. I already have the Zabbix Agent 2 setup in the client side but not sure how to go about from there. Hope anyone can assist.. Thank you...
