can somebody tell me what I need to customize to allow the check Mk Agent 1.5.0 p15 to connect to Windows 2019 on a HP node via HP Management Agents V10.90.00.0, does the agent need to be customized?
The goal is to be able to pull power supplies like storage monitoring from all HPE nodes.
ILO4 is connectable via windows, is there a possibility to download data from there?
That is an SNMP based check. You need to activate the SNMP agent on the iLO4. Or you configure the HP Management Agent to talk to the Windows SNMP agent (which has to be installed and configured).
Starting with iLO4 the recommended way is - setup “Agentless Management” inside iLO.
Set a read community inside iLO and then sent your queries to the iLO IP.
HP Management Agents for SNMP are obsolete since then.
The following is my opinion but other see this another way
In my systems there is a strict separation between iLO/iDRAC and so on interfaces and the normal systems with agent.
Management interfaces are used as separate objects inside monitoring.
I create my iLO host with it’s hostname and iLO ip address. Configure this with the right SNMP credentials and then do the automatic service discovery. Normally i use no manual check definitions for the management interfaces.
