My Proliant DL580 G5 that I have to test monitoring stuff with as I don't want to mess around in production seems unable to report raid status though SNMP no matter how many times I loop through the prtg forum posts, download stuff from the HPE website or use the Smart Update Manager DVD to install HP Insight agents and WBEM something something...
(It gives me loads of other stuff, the only thing missing is the raid stuff)
This script seemed promising as a workaround until the boss lets me near the newer Gen 8 server I've heard can do all this agentless through iLO.
Anyway, to the topic.
Locally it works just fine. I run it in powershell and it reports back this:
"OK - RAID status is good - Nb Ctrl : 1 - Nb Array : 2 - Nb logicaldrive : 2 - Nb physicaldrive : 8"
If I try to run it though MRPE (The check_mk agent version of NPRE) I get this instead:
"UNKNOWN - One of element of these : controller ($nb_ctrl), array ($nb_array), logicaldrive ($nb_logical) or physicaldrive ($nb_physical) is missing !"
Anyone know what's happening here or what I can do to help figure it out?
Also.
For anyone possibly googling their way here:
To make it run with MRPE I had to put the following into check_mk.ini, which is supposed to be located in the same folder as check_mk_agent.exe
=====
[mrpe]
check = HP_Smart_Array C:\Windows\System32\WindowsPowerShell\v1.0\powershell.exe -command ".'C:\Program Files (x86)\check_mk\mrpe\check_smartarray_v1.6.ps1'"
=====
Making it simply "check = HP_Smart_Array mrpe\check_smartarray_v1.6.ps1" like the documentation and example config file shows things looking doesn't work with powershell scripts. Handles bat-files just fine like that though.
