HPE iLO5 v3.06 breaks HW check

CMK version: 2.1.0p46

Hello everyone,
I have installed the latest iLO5 firmware v3.06 on my HPE DL3xx servers.
It seems that some hardware checks no longer work or hardware information can no longer be read correctly.
In my case it only seems to affect the information about the fans in the chassis.

Does anyone else have this problem?

Regards

Hi Gerry,
You’re not alone. HPE chose to now report the fan speed in percent, rather than a state (1 → other, 2 → normal, 3 → high).
Unfortunately they’re re-using the same OIDs, and the MIB isn’t updated. We’re in touch with them to figure out if this is intentional. We’ll release a fix in the next actively maintained Checkmk versions (be aware that 2.1 is in passive maintenence).
