Hi!
DISK check is WARNING, because it returns ON(!). Can you implement that state? Atm I have the -n option activated...which is not best practice :D Or am I doing smth wrong?

Thank you! Great great Plugin!

First of all thanks for the plugin!
We're trying to implement it in our environment, but currently hit a dead end with the monitoring part for storage system.
We’re using a RAID 1 configuration for our System Disk and if one Disk is removed or faulted it should show up as a Critical event.
But in our tests the result we’ve got after removing one of the two disks is only that it is non critical and the system neither logs a warning nor a critical state.
Is there a way to set the alert threshold in a way so that a disk failing, or being removed triggers a warning?
Thank you.
Best Regards!

As in the title.

I specified the host ip address in the idrac_2.1.conf but still have this error. Any idea why this is?
Also it would be good to have installation instruction in bullet points.

The example in MANUAL.md shows checking a specific DIMM and not using a configuration file, but when I try it states that I need to use a configuration file.

Check specific hardware
./idrac2.1.py -H 10.10.10.20 -v2c -c public -w MEM#3

Thank you for making this plugin and putting it all together.

Can I use the equivalent of -v2c public ?

I get the following errors specifying this in the configuration file

[snmp]
version = '2c'
community = 'public'

This is the error I get in Nagios:

iDRAC Server Health;WARNING;notify-service-by-email;snmp version "None" is not supported!

When I run this manually and append -v2c everything works however - e.g.

/usr/lib64/nagios/plugins/idrac_2.2rc4 -H 10.12.64.131 -v2c -c public -m /usr/share/snmp/mibs/idrac-smiv2.mib

I've also tried version = '2' to no avail.

I see it's unset here in the code: https://github.com/dangmocrang/check_idrac/blob/master/idrac_2.2rc4#L17 but seems ugly to force it there, I'd like to use the config file you are shipping.

What am I doing wrong?

Hi,

thanks for this neat plugin.
Some issues I notices with the battery module.

1.
The web interface is giving me two batteries:
System Board CMOS Battery - Good
PERC1 ROMB Battery - Good

I'm wondering why the plugin gives back PERC1 and 2 and the second with a "0"?

BATTERY
--System Board CMOS Battery: ENABLED/OK [PRESENCEDETECTED]
--PERC1 ROMB Battery: ENABLED/OK [PRESENCEDETECTED]
--PERC2 ROMB Battery: ENABLED/OK [0(!)]

I think this shouldn't be listed (or can I catch this state in the conf?)

2.
Another server but maybe the same issue:

Web interfaces just have:
System Board CMOS Battery - Good

Plugin returns:

BATTERY
--System Board CMOS Battery: ENABLED/OK [PRESENCEDETECTED]
--PERC1 ROMB Battery: ENABLED/OK [-2147483648(!)]
--PERC2 ROMB Battery: ENABLED/OK [-2147483648(!)]

Regards
Ricardo

as nagios config file takes # as comment, i am unable to use # in specific hardware check such as FAN#1
./check_idrac -m /usr/share/snmp/mibs/idrac.mib -H -v2c -c @apfin@nce -w FAN#1
while defining service description in nagios config it takes # as comment. can we use "-" instead of "#"? Please reply.

Greetings.

I'm having trouble with the output of the check_idrac plugin.

The output and the performance data are not formatted correctly. According to https://nagios-plugins.org/doc/guidelines.html , the output should look like this:

SERVICE STATUS: text of output | performance data

However, the check_idrac plugin output looks like this:

System Board Inlet Temp: 23.0 C ENABLED/OK | Temperature=23.0;;;;
CPU1 Temp: 53.0 C ENABLED/OK | Temperature=53.0;;;;
CPU2 Temp: 46.0 C ENABLED/OK | Temperature=46.0;;;;

Nagios is not interpreting the output correctly, and this is causing problems.

Can you please look into this and adjust the output to match the Nagios plugin standards?

Hi,

awesome tool, but we have some problems getting the status of our physical disks. Three values are switched from the group view in comparison to the view of a single disk which causes an unproblematic drive to throw a warning.

Here is an example:

I asume that the order of the values returned by snmpget is different from the ones returned by snmpwalk (which is used for groups and all) which then causes the wrong output and a false warning alert.

We have tested with different systems which all produce the same result.

When I set the value_on_alert Array in line 655 to [3,8,9] instead of [3,7,9] I can get rid of the false warning but still get the switched ouput. In order to fix the output I have to manipulate the order in lines 667 - 669 which then messes up the group output of PDisk.

If you need any more information, let me know,

best regards

Raphael Rehberg

Hi Dung,
Thanks for your great job regarding this check.
I met some issues with PS check on differents servers (2 x PE R420, 1 x PE R720, 2 x PE R620, 2 x PE R630, 2 x PE R430).
Let's have a look to a PE R630:
root@srv020:/usr/lib/nagios/plugins# ./check_idrac -H srv001-idrac -m ./idrac-smiv2.mib -c public -w PS -f check_idrac.conf

root@srv020:/usr/lib/nagios/plugins# ./check_idrac -H srv001-idrac -m ./idrac-smiv2.mib -c public -w PS#1 -f check_idrac.conf

CRIT - PS 2: OK, Volt I/O: 264 V/0(!!) V, Current: 0.2(!!) A, Watt I/O: 594.0 W/495(!!) W

My check_idrac.conf is the default one. Why does it quit with Critical status whereas the comment is OK?
I got this result with each server. The check runs on Debian Wheezy with Python 2.7.3

Thanks for your help.

Hello,

Thank you for your wonderful plugin, with the latest version I keep getting this error :

your MIB may out of dated!

I downloaded the lastest MIBs from Dell, I'm running a Dell R730 but I get the same error no matter what I try :

./idrac_2.2rc4 -H 192.168.1.24 -v2c -c public -m /root/tools/check_idrac-master/mymibs/mibs/iDRAC-SMIv2.mib

Hello,

I have using now the script for a 2 days. I have new Dell servers. 1 have failed today. But I get no nagios messages.

I see in nagios.

systemStateGlobalSystemStatus critical

But no alerts. Its get a green message.
When I changing the --critical= its give the same green message.

Hi,

I just configured your plugin with nagios and I managed to make it work with a server that uses iDrac9, I had to use the latest version you posted on another issue because I was having the same problem with warnings on disks when queried singularly.
But I still have warnings on most of my disks like this one:

PDisk 5 (0:1:0) 3726.02 GB: NON-RAID(!), PowerStat: SPUNUP, HotSpare: no [TOSHIBA, HDD, S/N: 39A8K5Z7F7DE] isFailing: 0

This will generate a warning on nagios I am guessing because of the NON-RAID flag. The thing is that it is supposed to be like that because those disks are not attached to a raid controller as it is an array of disks used in a ZFS pool.

I think it would be needed a flag to suppress this warning.

Otherwise great plugin!

Thanks.

check_idrac currently didn't support IPv6

Adding IPv6 support is easy because it require just to prefix host value with 'udp6:' when calling SNMP commands.

Please find attached a patch:
idrac_2.2rc4_ipv6.patch.txt

Hi

did you have any chance to test it on iDrac 8 version? I'm getting error.

checking every module is painful. is it possible to get the global status of all memory modules without checking every single module?
thank you in advance

Dear @dangmocrang!

Thanks for your great job creating and maintaining this awsome check.
In my setup it is always showing "PS" (first line of output of script) - as you see in the screenshots.

My question:
Is there a way to show more information in the "Status Information" field when there is an error with hardware?

My Nagios configuration - commands.cfg:

# 'check_idrac_full' command definition
define command{
        command_name       check_idrac_full
        command_line           /usr/local/nagios/libexec/check_idrac/idrac_2.2rc4 -H $HOSTADDRESS$ -f /usr/local/nagios/libexec/check_idrac/idrac_2.1.conf -m /usr/local/nagios/libexec/check_idrac/idrac-smiv2.mib
        }

My Nagios configuration - hosts.cfg:

define service{
        use                                  generic-service
        host_name                      dell
        service_description          iDRAC Full
        check_command             check_idrac_full
        notifications_enabled       0
        }

Thank you and greeeeetz from Austria,

Hello
I think if wrong credentials or missing parameters exist the check should return unknown state and a valid error message

e.g applies to:

Hello,

Thanks for the plugin, I try to check idrac v8 it was worked but I cannot see the disk and vdisk information on the command "./check_idrac_2.2 -H x.x.x.x -v 2c -c secret" and I use mib file from dell iDRAC-SMIv2.mib

How can I debug it to fix that my problem?

Thank you.

on some dell host's ive got the following error...

SNMP Timeout!

Hello,
Is it possible to set NON-RAID status as not a warning? A lot of servers have NON-RAID as normal setup

When using warning/critical limits, e.g.:
./idrac_2.2rc4 -p -H x.x.x.x -v2c -c public -m /idrac-smiv2.mib -w SENSOR#4 --temp-warn 29,40 --temp-crit 25,75
, the (!)/(!!) string is added to the numeric recorded value of the monitored value:
tmp[key][stat_t] += '(!)'

Later threshold checks fail after this is added with the following error:
Traceback (most recent call last):
File "./idrac_2.2rc4", line 841, in
result, exit_code = PARSER().main()
File "./idrac_2.2rc4", line 679, in main
hw_dict, exit_code = self.raise_alert(hw_dict, value_on_alert)
File "./idrac_2.2rc4", line 582, in raise_alert
if float(tmp[key][stat_t]) <= conf['sensor_thresholds'][0]:

As a workaround I've stripped these characters from the recorded value:

•                        if float(tmp[key][stat_t]) <= conf['sensor_thresholds'][0]:
  

•                        if float(tmp[key][stat_t].strip('(!)')) <= conf['sensor_thresholds'][0]:
  

  Used this for all threshold checks.

Maybe there's a better way to do it, but this did the trick for us.

Regards,
Ovidiu

Line 697 in the script should be replaced with
perf_data = ' | \'%s\'=%s;;;%s;%s' \

so that the temperature labels don't have spaces in them and are read correctly by the monitoring system

Hi there,

i'm trying to monitor my Dell server hardware through the iDrac but i have the error: SNMP timeout!
i have followed the instructions, i have copied the MIB and check_idrac files int the correct folder, the permission should be ok as well.
i have created my command into Nagios which is: "$USER1$/check_idrac -H $HOSTADDRESS$ -v2c -c public"
i'm able to ping the host from Nagios with command check_icmp.
any idea please ?

many thanks in advance,
djano

When running the latest version of this script 2,2rc4 with a simple "./check_idrac -H x.x.x.x -v2c -c public" the output looks good until the end where it displays the following error at the command line:

I believe as a result when this is implemented within Nagios I get a Status of WARNING. Individually when all items are checked rather than all at once - the output is OK.

Hello,

Many thanks for this script. It saved us to monitoring ESXis with different version threw Nagios.
Everything is working fine, but i noticed a small bug.
All files are the default files from git, also i have the latest version.

In one server , there is a warning for Correctable memory error . The check finds that the RAM Dimm is in NONCRITICAL state, but it reports as OK.
In other servers, when a component is in NONCRITICAL, for example, ROM Battery, then the Nagios check is in Warning state.

[root@lhvmsrv120 check_idrac-master]# /usr/lib64/nagios/plugins/check_idrac-master/idrac_2.2rc4 -H 10.168.2.64 -v 2c -c public -m /usr/lib64/nagios/plugins/check_idrac-master/idrac-smiv2.mib -w MEM#6
OK - Memory 6 (DIMM Socket A6) 32.0 GB/2133 MHz: ENABLED/NONCRITICAL [26, Hynix Semiconductor, S/N: 10CAA11A]

Can you please check ?

Thank you,

Hi,

I've an interesting issue with check_idrac on one of our Dell servers (out of probably 100). When I'm running check_idrac, it successfully executes until "System Board Inlet Temp" and then it raises the following exception:

--PDisk 12 (0:1:12) 278.88 GB: ONLINE, PowerStat: SPUNUP, HotSpare: no [HGST, HDD, S/N: XXXXXXXX]
--PDisk 13 (0:1:13) 278.88 GB: ONLINE, PowerStat: SPUNUP, HotSpare: no [HGST, HDD, S/N: YYYYYYYY]

    hw_dict, exit_code = self.raise_alert(hw_dict, value_on_alert)
  File "/etc/icinga2/scripts/idrac", line 576, in raise_alert
    tmp[key][stat_t] = float(tmp[key][stat_t].strip('(!)'))/10
ValueError: could not convert string to float: "System Board Inlet Temp"

On other servers the output looks like:

--PDisk 14 (0:1:13) 278.88 GB: ONLINE, PowerStat: SPUNUP, HotSpare: no [HGST, HDD, S/N: YYYYYYYY]
--System Board Inlet Temp: 21.0 C ENABLED/OK | Temperature=21.0;;;;

I did some debugging and it looks like that tmp[key][stat_t] holds different values on a working and non-working server:

• Working server: 210
• Non-working server: "System Board Inlet Temp"

Thank you,
Matthias

Compared generation 1, I get a lot of SNMP timeout situations when I ask the script to check all hardware (i.e. when I do not provide a -w option). I'm not sure why that is, but I've returned to generation 1 for the time being.

By the way, when the timeouts occur, v. 2.0b6 yields a WARNING (code 1). I believe this is not how it's supposed to be: I believe that it should yield an UNKNOWN (code 3) state. So I suggest adjusting line 439 so that
sys.exit(1)
is changed to
sys.exit(3)

Hi!
Great Plugin! Just one little problem: i am unable to define thresholds to receive perfdata on a Poweredge R930. Its not working at all. Here is an example from Temp-Sensor:

Any advice? Do you need further information?

Kind regards - P

Hi -

I cant seem to figure out why this does not output any type of perfdata which nagios can consume. I read that the --no-alert disables performance data but even the bare data output does not contain any performance data in the way nagios expects it. Nagios expects it as pipe delimeted (meaning the rest of data after | is the perfdata) and then tag valued pair (data_point=value_point) separated by white space to indicate what should be plotted

Did I miss something?

Thanks for your help! Awesome script overall!

Hi,

I would like to use your script to monitor my Dell iDRAC, but when I launch it against any of my host, I get the following errror :

Did you got an idea to address this please ?

hardware not found! If you sure the hw exists then you may want to edit TRANSLATOR code (line 612).

/usr/lib/nagios/plugins/check_idrac.py -H 10.x.x.x -v2c -c public -w PS
PS 1: OK, Volt I/O: 264 V/208 V, Current: 0.4 A, Watt I/O: 900.0 W/750 W
PS 2: CRITICAL(!!), Volt I/O: 264 V/(N/A) V, Current: (N/A) A, Watt I/O: 900.0 W/750 W

I was able to correct this, but i think the solution is not permanent one.
I added thoses lines at line 388:

            if self.hardware[2] == 'PS' :
                output = output.replace('No Such Instance currently exists at this OID','0')
            else:

That way I get a CRIT on PS#2.
/usr/lib/nagios/plugins/check_idrac.py -H 10.x.x.x -v2c -c public -w PS#2
CRIT - PS 2: CRITICAL(!!), Volt I/O: 264 V/(N/A) V, Current: 0.0 A, Watt I/O: 900.0 W/750 W

Hi,

Is it possible to add WARNING when a NONCRITICAL error occur?

Via iDRAC I found "Correctable memory error rate exceeded for DIMM_B12".
This is reported via this script as:
Memory 24 (DIMM Socket B12) 32.0 GB/1333 MHz: ENABLED/NONCRITICAL [DDR3, Hynix Semiconductor, S/N: 318E5BCD]

But the exit code is still 0 and a status OK is returned in Nagios, I would like to see this as a WARNING state.

Thanks for a great plugin

Right now, when I use the script to check one of my servers, it prints all the hardware status, even if it's OK. This is a lot of data to sort through.

Is there a way to only output hardware status if the hardware has a problem?

I am kind of confused:

where are the python files you are talking about in the howto?

This check seems to be exactly what I am looking for. Please help.

Regards

Hi,

tested your script today and saw, that there is always no data rot the fans. is this correct?

The following occurs when I run check_idrac against a server with iDRAC 8 that currently has last redundancy on 1 PSU:

Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "./check_idrac", line 874, in <module>
      result, tmp_code = PARSER().main()
  File "./check_idrac", line 773, in main
       else: hw_4 = float(hw[4]/10

I (temporarily) fixed this by changing line 773 as follows:
else: hw_4 = hw[4].split('(')[0]

I'm no advanced programmer, and I have no idea if that was the proper thing to do, but it seemed reasonable as I was looking at some of the surrounding code.

It should be noted that there is no issue with the original code when it runs against a healthy iDRAC 8 machine.

Check of whole hardware with config file does not work. It shows "SNMP version None not supported"-error message. Check of single hardware with config file works fine. Is there missing config_check in check_all part?

./idrac_2.0b5 -H SOME.HOST.NAME -c public
yields:
coercing to Unicode: need string or buffer, NoneType found
