Monitor IPMI with ipmitool (zabbix integrated IPMI client hide data)

[Mate1213]

Hi!

I have an HP DL360e G8 with ILO4, I would like to monitor the power usage, over IPMI this data available with ipmitool's sensor command like:

ipmitool -I lanplus -H *IPaddress* -U *user*-P *password* sensor
Power Supply 1 | 240 | Watts | ok | na | na | na | na | na | na

I hoped the ipmi.get item like in the documentation will provide these info but it result the next json:

{
"id": "Power Supply 1",
"name": "(10.1).Power Supply 1",
"sensor": {
"type": 8,
"text": "power_supply"
},
"reading": {
"type": 111,
"text": "sensor specific"
},
"state": {
"state": 1,
"text": "presence detected"
}
},​

So my idea from zabbix server side I could monitor this value but I would like to attach to the IPMI host.

Is there any way, to run script on server to collect custom parameter from host?


Thanks!
Mate

The question of displaying the consumption of power supplies received via IPMI has been repeatedly discussed on the forum - use the search.
In short, zabbix cannot take this information because it is placed in a "non-standard way" or a sensor of the wrong type.

Workarounds:

1) system.run[command]
https://www.zabbix.com/documentation...s/zabbix_agent

2) UserParameter

Thanks for the repeated response! I will continue my search. Sadly, its not quite what I need (this will ad the parameter to the server, if I understand right), but I can work with this.
