Monitoring of Dell power edge server 2950 by Zabbix

[mudit.gupta]

Hello All

I want to monitor "Dell power edge server 2950" by our Zabbix Server.
We want to monitor specifically Server Fans, Ram crash, Hard disk crash and other hardware as well.

How can I monitor this ? Do I need to install any GUI feature on dell server or what else ?

I really need your help in this.

Please help me !

Thanks

you will need to open SNMP from your dell to zabbix server .

see ref :

https://www.zabbix.com/documentation/3.0/manual/config/items/itemtypes/snmp

after that you can check here :

https://share.zabbix.com/

if somone made a template for this so you can upload to ur zabbix.
ur you will have to ake your own using the MIB file.

yes- in the DELL device enable SNMP and remember which Community you set,
the defalut is privet or public but you can create you wn name,
after youll do it you will need to folow the reference to see if connection is working throw 'snmpwalk' command.
