How to read overall host status via SNMP

[Ivo Hanuska]

I need to read hardware overall server status of HP machines, where IM agents are installed. Basically, what I search is OID and description of variable contents, which is going to tell me: machine is OK (so hardware is running OK), or there are issues to be solved. In case of issues we are going to use SIM, but since we use different overall monitoring system, we need to be notified on this different system in case of server hardware failure as well.

one way is to configure SNMP string at the target end which matches to System Insight manager, in Global protocol settings.
and run the data collection and Hardware status polling on the target system then it will be discoved and identified properly.

Hope this willhelp you
