check_hpasm with REHL 6

RTucker — Fri, 04 Feb 2011 16:28:14 GMT

We're having issues with the nagios plugin check_hpasm randomly timing out on a BL2x220c G6 (2x L5530 24GB 1x250GB)
We have not been able to find any logic as to why this is randomly happening. It appears to be an issue with this specific plugin and RHEL 6 as we've got other identical blades running RHEL5.5 without issue.
The other checks we're running on these machines all work fine:
check_hparray
check_ccis
check_hplog

Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks!

Are you using the Nagios bundle specific and certified for RHEL 6?

Are you using Insight Control for Linux 6.2? And are your PSPs updated to the current release for your RHEL 6 environment?

The PSPs are up to date. Where can I find the specific nagions downloads certified for RHEL6?

Aren't your NAGIOS bits part of Insight Control for Linux though -- from HP?

Everything that we have in place seems to be current. One thing that I'm seeing different between systems where we're not having issues and ones that we are is the running processes are different.

Host not having issues:
hpasmlited -f /dev/hpilo

Host having issues:
hpasmxld -f /dev/ipmi0

Any ideas?

Shalom,

Has check_hpasm even been certified and released on RHEL 6? If not that could be the cause of the problem. Usually you have to wait until the tool set is certified on a particular release.
