Re: Writing software to pick up state of Integrity server front panel health LEDs
Use SNMP?
I suppose you could script a telnet or ssh and ask for the VFP Command output.
None of this has anythign to do with OpenVMS of course.
You are adviced to tackle this problem from a generic, non-OS centric, hardware angle.
Just Google for RX2660 and SNMP and take it from there with topics like:

Good luck!

Re: Writing software to pick up state of Integrity server front panel health LEDs
Why does that matter what OS it runs to check out the HW health?
Unless you want it to monitor itself ?!
In that case, how will you detect fatal problems?
fwiw,
Hein

Re: Writing software to pick up state of Integrity server front panel health LEDs

I had a quick look at building it on VMS once, but it had some dependencies that I didn't manage to get working quickly. However, while monitoring from another VMS system makes perfect sense, the path of least resistance might be to monitor it from something else.
There is a manual about iLO scripting at:
http://h20000.www2.hp.com/bc/docs/support/SupportManual/c00294268/c00294268.pdf
but it appears the only supported clients run on Windows.

Re: Writing software to pick up state of Integrity server front panel health LEDs
as the document that Craig pointed out states, iLO communication uses the IPMI protocol, which is an Intel industry standard. There are freeware tools for IPMI, e.g. http://ipmiutil.sourceforge.net/
I have no idea, though, whether these can be tweaked to build under VMS.
HTH,
Martin

Might need more than a tweak.
http://ipmiutil.sourceforge.net/docs/UserGuide
[...]
------------------------
2.0 DEPENDENCIES
------------------------
The IPMI Utilities will run on Linux, Windows Solaris, or FreeBSD, and should
be portable to other OSs, if an IPMI driver for that OS can be obtained.
[...]
I don't know what "an IPMI driver" does, but
if I have one, then it'd be news to me.

Re: Writing software to pick up state of Integrity server front panel health LEDs
The only reference to IPMI I can find sofar, are the files:
SYS$COMMON:[SYSHLP]VMS831H1I_IPMIAPI-V0100.RELEASE_NOTES
SYS$COMMON:[SYSLIB]HPIPMI_API.EXE
SYS$COMMON:[SYSLIB]HPIPMI_API.H
SYS$COMMON:[SYSLIB]HPIPMI_TYPES.H
The HPIPMI_API.H file declares 4 "get"-routines, an "init" and an "uninit" procedure.
Not much, but maybe a place to start?
