list Kevin King
Fellow xymoners, anyone monitoring HP Ilo’s? just wondering if you are using Devmon or some other script. Looking for samples and comments. Thanks. -Kevin Sent from Mail for Windows 10

I used to do some Devmon with it, but we never got what we wanted out of it. We also used the perl ILO module, but things changed a year or so ago, and I couldn’t get it working again. I ended up writing a perl script using IPMI and I get what I need, in one test. Chassis, fans, memory, disk, and temperature. Obviously, it could be broken out into their own tests if wanted.

I am interested in what you built. I have a few dl 380’s and the C7000 platforms the application vendor has some on the platform and not all the HP defaults are as expected. I had the same experience as you with Devmon for this product. I have some old Ilo2’s and starting to get Ilo 4s . Is what you are using posted? Would you share? 😊

Made me look at the script. It’s pretty simple, and I decided to break it out into separate tests. Took 5 minutes.
Looks like it requires these packages:
freeipmi.x86_64 1.2.1-7.el6 @base
ipmitool.x86_64 1.8.15-2.el6 @base
ipmiutil.x86_64 3.0.1-1.el6 @epel
Not sure if it will work with ILO2. I’m pretty sure the oldest ILOs I have now is ILO-3.
I could dig out some old scripts I used with ILO-2. That was with the ILO perl module, if I remember right.
Anyway, I put this script in ext
[IPMI]
ENVFILE /usr/lib64/xymon/server/etc/xymonserver.cfg
NEEDS xymond
CMD $XYMONHOME/ext/ipmi-test.sh
LOGFILE $XYMONSERVERLOGS/ipmi.log
INTERVAL 5m
Then have IPMI in the comment section of the hosts.cfg.
Finally, you need a ~xymon/.impipass file with a 3-tuple for each server – hostname user and password
Host:user:pass
