--------------------------------------
How-To ----------------------------------
There are 2 systems in this
instruction, 1 for CentOS (Host) and 1 for iDRAC device (DUT).
########## DUT iDRAC port
setting
- connect to idrac web interface (log in of course)
- in left side, go into the Overview / iDRAC settings / Network
- in right side (from top panel), choose Services / SNMP Agent
- make sure "Enabled" is checked
- make sure "SNMP Protocol" is checked on option "All (SNMP
v1/v2/v3)
########## CentOS (Host)
- Install CentOS 7
#yum search net-snmp (make sure you can see the package list, it's normal if
there is a downloading process)
#yum install net-snmp net-snmp-utils git -y
#git clone https://github.com/dangmocrang/check_idrac
#cd check_idrac
#mv idrac_2.0b9 idrac_2.0b9.py
#python idrac_2.0b9.py -h (please check if it can print out the help
page, if yes, the script works).
copy IDRAC-MIB.mib file as attached to Desktop
#pwd (confirm the current directly is "/root/check_idrac", if not,
please do command "#cd /root/check_idrac")
#mv idrac_2.0b9 idrac_2.0b9.py
#python ./idrac_2.0b9.py -H $IP_Address -c public -m
/home/dell/Desktop/IDRAC-MIB.mib –n –w mem
it's very important, you have to get response like
----------------
Memory 1 (DIMM Socket A1) 2.00
GB/1600 MHz: ENABLED/OK [DDR3, Samsung, S/N: 234A70AF]
----------------
########## Nagios Installation
**copy attathed
nagios-3.5.1.tar.gz and nagios-plugins-1.4.11.tar.gz to Desktop
su -
useradd nagios
groupadd nagcmd
usermod -a -G nagcmd nagios
yum install httpd
php gd gd-devel gcc glibc glibc-common openssl perl perl-devel make -y
cd /home/dell/Desktop
tar -xvzf nagios
cd nagios
./configure
--with-command-group=nagcmd
make all
make install
make install-init
make install-config
make install-commandmode
make install-webconf
cp -rvf contrib/eventhandlers/
/usr/local/nagios/libexec/
chown -R nagios:nagios
/usr/local/nagios/libexec/eventhandlers
htpasswd -c
/usr/local/nagios/etc/htpasswd.users nagiosadmin (set the password
for "nagiosadmin" user)
systemctl start httpd.service
systemctl start nagios.service
firewall-cmd --zone=public
--add-port=80/tcp --permanent
firewall-cmd --reload
cp
/home/dell/Desktop/IDRAC-MIB.mib /usr/share/snmp/mibs/
cp
/root/check_idrac/idrac_2.0b9.py /usr/local/nagios/libexec/
chown nagios.nagios
/usr/local/nagios/libexec/idrac_2.0b9.py
echo
"cfg_file=/usr/local/nagios/etc/objects/idrac.cfg" >>
/usr/local/nagios/etc/nagios.cfg
touch /usr/local/nagios/etc/objects/idrac.cfg
gedit
/usr/local/nagios/etc/objects/idrac.cfg
- copy & past all contents list below (#### idrac.cfg file ###) into the
file
- then you need to modify $idrac_ip_address to real DUT (idrac) IP Address
(there are 2 items)
- then save it
service nagios restart
*** now you should be able to
use Chrome to browse "http://CentOS_IP_Address/nagios/"
and log in as user:nagiosadmin and password you just set.
$$$$$$
for multi-DUT (idrac) $$$$$$$$$$$
cd /usr/local/nagios/etc/objects
cp idrac.cfg idrac2.cfg
cp idrac.cfg idrac3.cfg
echo
"cfg_file=/usr/local/nagios/etc/objects/idrac2.cfg" >>
/usr/local/nagios/etc/nagios.cfg
echo
"cfg_file=/usr/local/nagios/etc/objects/idrac3.cfg" >>
/usr/local/nagios/etc/nagios.cfg
and you need to modify
"/usr/local/nagios/etc/objects/idrac2.cfg,idrac3.cfg...etc" for the
following items.
- host_name
- $idrac_ip_address
- command_name
- $idrac_ip_address
- host_name
- check_command
#service nagios restart
