Dell Server Temperature Template Problem

[wcpon]

Hi guys..
I encounter a problem..
I tried to download the dell server temperature template from Cacti Forum...
And import the template to my Cacti Server.
But I still not able to monitor the server temperature from Cacti Server...
anyone can advice? Besides import the template, I need to add on any configuration in the server or not?

Thanks.

Have you install OMSA on the dell you want to monitor ?

Hi tosage...

You mean the procedure for Ubuntu Server same with Red Hat/CentOS?
Because I am using CentOS...

May I know how about the windows server? I need to install any plugin also?

Please advice. Thanks

All daemon are running ? Have you started a sudo /etc/init.d/dataeng start with any fail ?
Have you in your snmpd.conf the information for smuxpeer as is explain in the Dell Web page ?

Code: Select all

# Allow Systems Management Data Engine SNMP to connect to snmpd using SMUX
smuxpeer .1.3.6.1.4.1.674.10892.1

And look at the /var/log/messages if you have message of problem to take smuxpeer message

If all of this things are OK, normally you can do this on your Cacti Server :

sudo snmpwalk -v 2c -c public 127.0.0.1
and
sudo snmpwalk -v 2c -c public 10.10.10.1 .1.3.6.1.4.1.674.10892.1

Hi, is working now after your guidelines..
But, I'm facing the temperature templates graph error.. only the fan speed able to view,
do you mind to share with me your templates?

And one more question,
If I want Cacti to monitor Windows Server Temperature, Fan Speed...
Any guidelines I can follow?

Very appreciate that your help.

I put my dell poweredge template from a Cacti 0.8.7e.
You have graph template, two data query and the two xml script !
Modify the hash to your Cacti version if it's necessary

Good Luck !

Thanks a lot.

Do you have any idea about the Monitor Windows Server Temperature, Fan Speed from Cacti?
I'm done for Linux, but Windows Server still cannot... Hope you can give some advice.

You need to install OMSA (OpenManage Server Administrator) under your Windows Server.
On http://support.dell.com you can download the latest or the version full compatible with your dell server (if you are older machine)
Normally you have the OMSA CD with the server
