IBM BladeCenter H template

[intelic76]

Has anyone had any luck getting this to work with the recent releases of cacti?

I've gotten this template to work on cactiez v0.6 (our old server). But I cannot get it to work on the newer release (0.8.7i on the new box).

I can confirm that the only thing that appears to have non U values for the rrdtool update bit is the fan rpm gauge, all the other snmpget's return values with extra bits.

Non Working results:
Host[2] TH[1] DS[63] SNMP: v1: 10.18.0.10, dsname: bladecent_platemp, oid: .1.3.6.1.4.1.2.3.51.2.2.1.1.2.0, value: 28.00 Centigrade
Host[2] TH[1] DS[64] SNMP: v1: 10.18.0.10, dsname: bladecent_therm_out, oid: .1.3.6.1.4.1.2.3.51.2.2.10.5.1.3.0, value: 7608.760000 BTU/hour

Working results:
Host[2] TH[1] DS[10] SNMP: v1: 10.18.0.10, dsname: bladecent_fan1_rpm, oid: .1.3.6.1.4.1.2.3.51.2.2.3.20.0, value: 1824
Host[2] TH[1] DS[11] SNMP: v1: 10.18.0.10, dsname: bladecent_fan2_rpm, oid: .1.3.6.1.4.1.2.3.51.2.2.3.21.0, value: 1824

Is there supposed to be an xml file or portion of the template that describes how to regexp/parse the returned results?

Same problem here. I'd love to help but I need someone to tell me which files need to be modified

Hi all

Thanks !

Hi,

Any solutions for 0.8.7i on ubuntu?

I did notice some reporting coming back from 1 of 3 blade chassis's I'd like to monitor when the poller was cmd.php.

Currently 1 chassis is graphic fan speed with spine enabled, but no other graphs are working.

[ceslick]

I have gotten this to work in 0.8.8a.

It only works with the cmd poller though

Hi guys,

I have installed the cactiEZ, with cacti 0.8.7c and I can't import the template. Every time i try i get the "Error: XML: Hash version does not exist." error.

Can you help me with this?

Use the attached 'instrumented' binary side band, in other words, not in production. When running, do the following:

Code: Select all

./spine -R -V 3 -S -f <host_id> -l <host_id>

Where the host_id is the host_id of the host that needs stripping. Attach the output for review.

Virus84,

Could you please give us the instructions on how to replace the original file of poller.c that is in the spine directory with the file that you gave us ?

Thank you in advance.

I use cacti 0.8.7i and spine

[lixlaura]

hello, I was able to replace poller.c now my graphs stopped drawing...
Can I have some help please ?
I check the permissions on my log and rra folders, and they are ok. (www-data has the right to these folders)
I am using Cacti 0.8.7i

Hello,

I use these templates, and I have a problem only with the graph BTU/h

For other oid's where the value is a string, I have no problems, for example, SNMPv2-SMI :: enterprises.2.3.51.2.2.10.2.1.1.7.17 = STRING: "84W" everything is fine.

Any suggestions?

Hi! Could someone add the possibility to monitor the embedded switches also? Traffic, etc..

Hello, do you mind telling me how you were able to make your graphs work in cacti 0.8.8a ?

[TaLL0s]

I did nothing. Plugins are installed cacti version 0.8.7 (do not remember We versions). Then I made the upgrade to 0.8.8. Most plots was correct with the exception of BTU.

Then I made the update to version 0.8.8b + spine and since then none of the charts is not working properly despite the absence of errors in the logs (only 05/27/2014 10:21:05 AM - POLLER: Poller [0] CACTI2RRD: / usr / bin / rrdtool update / usr/share/cacti/rra/7/84.rrd - bc_pwr_usg_pd1_slo5 template 1401178861: U). Honestly I have no idea why.

In version 0.8.8.b only work properly "Power Usage - Management Module" and "Fan Speed ​​in RPM". Other graphs are generated. RRD files are updated without data (nan).
In the near future I'm not going to take this problem.

Hi I've got the same issue.

[jojo123]

Hi I've got the same issue.

I've spent days with that. I have solved it with:

- set Poller Type to "cmd.php"
- set SNMP Timeout to 60000

I also created a working plugin for Bladecenter E, based on the Plugin for H with changed SNMP OIDs.
I've appended it.
