This plugin checks sensors (psu, temperature, fans et al) and overall health of SAN switches that understand the Fibre Alliance MIB. There is a long list of companies behind that MIB; I have tested the script with switches from Brocade and Qlogic.
Examples:
check_fibrealliance.sh -H 1.2.3.4 -C community -T status
Overall unit status: OK
Product: "QLogic(R) 4Gb Fibre Channel Switch Module for IBM BladeCenter(R)"
Serial number: "11S26R0883ZK15TL67G529"
check_fibrealliance.sh -H 1.2.3.4 -C community -T sensors
"Power supply 1 Status" = "Good"
"Temperature Status" = "Normal"
"Temperature Sensor 1 Value" = "27 degrees C"

Plugin works fine out of the box on EMC Brocade 5300, but it would be nice to get some performance data out of it so we can get some graphs. Also for serial number I get 'None'. I'll see if I can find the oid for it.

Product: "Fibre Channel Switch."
Serial number: "6YFR34D1"
./check_fiberalliance.sh -H 10.0.64.214 -C public -T sensors
TEMP #1" = type 3 is OK, value is 27"
TEMP #2" = type 3 is OK, value is 29"
" FAN #1" = type 4 is OK, value is 4129"
" FAN #2" = type 4 is OK, value is 4129"
" FAN #3" = type 4 is OK, value is 4129"
" Power Supply #1" = type 5 is OK, value is 1"

Exactly what I needed! Really awesome! Registered just to thank you!
Great plugin. Works great with my HP StoragWorks MSA 2324fc SAN and HP FiberChannel switches.
