Hi @andreas-doehler
Just wanted to let you know that I’ve installed the MKP that you provided on your Github page and that is works in combination with EMC Unity 480F XT storage.
The check itself seems a bit slow +/- 55 secs to complete, but it does work.
i am actually reworking this special agent and plugin because it seems not actively maintained anymore.
It’s slow because the metrics are gathered each alone in a 5 second time frame and sum up massively if you have several service processors. If you don’t need the metrics you can comment them out at the special agent.
This special agent works with all EMC products supporting the uemcli interface.
You will find the special agent at ~site/local/share/check_mk/agents/special/agent_emcunity and empty the dictionary metrics, this will speed up the agent:
You can additionally disable all the checks in the special agent you don’t need. Any check is a call against the API and take some time. If you have a lot of luns or file systems it produces a really long output which takes this time. If you don’t need this information, just comment them out like the metrics.
It still collects the information from the Unity, but there is an issue passing it to CheckMK:
Example output from cmk -d :
