| Post subject: | How to get information about my storage |
Hello!!! I have a storage MSA500 with 10 disks of 146 GB each one! And two server DL380 G5. I install the Nagios to monitoring my servers. And what I really need is the information about each disk of my storage. Like if one of my disks fails i want that Nagios give this information to me. And more, I can configure to receive an email or a SMS in my cell phone when this happen. Anyone knows if is possible to get this information??? And help me how to start??? Thanks! |

It depends on your device. Is this a host? A NAS box? Just a disk unit? Is it SNMP-aware? Our SAN units support SNMP, and so are configured to send SNMP traps to the Nagios box. This uses the snmptrapd to catch traps and feed them into the Nagios command file as external check results (homegrown script, but very simple) You could also use SNMP to poll the device directly, as many device MIBs will have a 'health status' OID (or more than one) that you can check with the normal check_snmp script. |
