RAID monitoring

[mgh_1]

Hello

I need to monitor the RAID on our HP servers.

Does anyone know what the correct OID is pointing to the RAID status? Or is there a similar function. I've already installed the HP Agent on XenServer. But what do I have to do now?

Thanks for your help

Matthias

mgh,

You should download HP Systems Insight Manager and monitor your hardware from there. SIM it's definetively the way to go.

Just enable SNMP read access for your SIM server on snmpd.conf:

rocommunity community_name sim_server

add your SIM server to your SNMP trap destinations:

trapsink sim_ip community_name

restart snmpd and discover the host from SIM.

Hi Matthias,

I see that system management homepage is supported from HP.

for further management, I guess HP SIM seems to be only options from HP.
