This plugin is great. The source plugin is well documented, installation dependencies well documented, works out of the box in nagios. I am fairly new to nagios and was able to figure this out.
I could get nitpicky and ask for more features but 5/5 since it does exactly what it says it does.
Some notes. The nagios box we are using is *nix based and I was able to find all the dependencies via yum.
yum install perl-IO-Socket-SSL.noarch
yum install perl-XML-Simple.noarch
yum install perl-Nagios-Plugin.noarch
The only small hiccups I had were in configuring nagios. I needed to setup the host.cfg hostaddress as the hostname as opposed to the IP address for some reason. Also, our particular iLO2 password has odd characters that confuse the shell so I needed to add quotation marks around the password in the nagios config.
Just some tips that were difficult for me to figure out since I am new to this. Plugin is great.
