Hi, for those who like me have to adminitrate an HPE environment, I would to share the way I found to automatically discover the different embedded blades in a HPE FF7910 and then to graph CPU and Memory from them.
So all my HPE switches (5120, 5130, 5140, 5700, FF7910) I use Template Net HP Comware HH3C SNMPv2, witch has not been updated since 2017.
This template discovery rule don't discover FF7910 embedded blades, here is an exemple output from SNMP OID 1.3.6.1.2.1.47.1.1.1.1.2:
Board 1/0
Board 1/1
Board 1/2
Master Board 1/10
Standby Board 1/11
Board 2/0
Board 2/1
Board 2/2
Master Board 2/10
Standby Board 2/11
I found the way to discover them by adding a filter in Module Discovery/filter:
Another trick: when supervising an HPE 5130 stack, with the same Template Net HP Comware HH3C SNMPv2, you cannot get the CPU and Memory graphs for all stack members, because all boards got the same name from the OID 1.3.6.1.2.1.47.1.1.1.1.2, they all are just called 'board', so I modify Module Discovery/Item prototypes and Module Discovery/Graph prototypes names this way:
So now I get all my stack members CPU and Memory graphs, the only problem is I don't have Board1, Board2 etc as graph name but Board #192, Board #210 etc. Maybe there is a way to modify item's name on the fly, I am still working on it.
This second trick is not needed for a FF7910, so make sure to make different templates for 5130 or for FF7910
Hope it will help HPE admins.
Thanks again to all the community.
