Monitoring Xclarity server (Lenovo server) via SNMP

[krajesh (Rajesh)]

Hello everyone,
I’m hoping someone can help with setting up hardware monitoring on Lenovo ThinkSystem servers. I have tried various ways.

SNMP and IPMI both i have tried to get hardware monitoring for lenovo servers.

Our check_mk version is 2.2p
any other possibilities are there or any other way… please guide us.

We are using IPMI since years with god results.
Alternative is running in:

Call for Redfish beta testers

Very often I am getting: Output: [special_redfish] redfish.rest.v1.RetriesExhaustedError(!!), [piggyback] Success (but no data found for this host), Missing monitoring data for all plugins(!), execution time 18.0 sec 5 minutes later it works fine again. Already have set the timeout to 30 seconds but the error keeps coming back often. ps. have disabled the firmware versions. Any posible ideas? The node in question as a new HPE Alletra 4140, ILO 6 with latest ilo firmware. When the plugin do…

regards

Michael
