check_ibm_bladecenter.py

Follows a fan failure on one of our BladeCenter in our hospital. I corrected the bug that indicates OK status despite one of the failed fans on both. Since this is a major issue on a BladeCenter, I removed the warning state to go directly to critical. For that I control the state returned for the fan "blower1state and blower2state and I add in addition a condition for which the fan must have a speed of rotation different from 0%: and blower1speed != "0% of maximum": def check_blowers(): " Check blower status " blowers = getTable("1.3.6.1.4.1.2.3.51.2.2.3") # This mib only seems to support 2 blowers. blower1speed = snmpget("1.3.6.1.4.1.2.3.51.2.2.3.1.0") blower1state = snmpget("1.3.6.1.4.1.2.3.51.2.2.3.10.0") blower2speed = snmpget("1.3.6.1.4.1.2.3.51.2.2.3.2.0") blower2state = snmpget("1.3.6.1.4.1.2.3.51.2.2.3.11.0") add_long( "Blower 1 state=%s speed=%s" % (blower1state,blower1speed) ) add_long( "Blower 2 state=%s speed=%s" % (blower2state,blower2speed) ) add_perfdata("blower1=%s" %(blower1speed.split(None,1)[0] )) add_perfdata("blower2=%s" %(blower2speed.split(None,1)[0] )) # Check blower 1 if blower1state == "1" and blower1speed != "0% of maximum": nagios_status(ok) add_summary("Ventilateur 1 OK. " ) else: add_summary("Ventilateur 1 KO. ") nagios_status(critical) # Check blower 2 if blower2state == "1" and blower2speed != "0% of maximum": nagios_status(ok) add_summary("Ventilateur 2 OK. " ) else: add_summary("Ventilateur 2 KO. ") nagios_status(critical)

Thank you for plugin! I allowed myself to make some improvements. Diff below 1 - Adding option for crypto protocol in snmpv3 75a76,81 > parser.add_option("-a","--snmp_protocol", dest="snmp_protocol", > help="SNMP protocol (only with SNMP v3)", default=None) > parser.add_option("-X","--snmp_passphrase", dest="snmp_passphrase", > help="SNMP passphrase (only with SNMP v3)", default=None) > parser.add_option("-x","--snmp_privproto", dest="snmp_privproto", > help="SNMP privproto (only with SNMP v3)", default=None) 107c113 snmp_options = snmp_options + " -u %s -l %s -A %s -a %s -X %s -x %s " % (opts.snmp_username,opts.snmp_seclevel,opts.snmp_password,opts.snmp_protocol,opts.snmp_passphrase,opts.snmp_privproto) 2 - Option exclude now may be a list( -e [2,3,4]) usefull for powermodules check 234c240 if myIndex in opts.exclude: continue

Thanks for the nice plugin. A few tweaks would be great: 1. Use standard Nagios warning/critical thresholds a. ex: check_ibm_bladecenter -H mychassisIP -C public -m powermodules -w 4: -c 3: b. The above check returns an error, and even when a single digit (i.e. -c 4) is supplied, it doesn't seem to affect the status. In my environment, 2 power supplies are redundant so I would like to get a warning if 1 drops (4 p/s = OK, 3 p/s = WARNING, 2 p/s = CRITICAL) 2. -m blowers returns first blower twice in status but shows correctly in perfdata a. OK - Blower1 OK. Blower1 OK. | blower1=60% blower2=61%

Nothing to blame, works fine with our Blade-Center and all the features are available. good

The checks work well, however the blower one doesn't report correctly into Nagios. I've not had a chance to test all of the others. I was doing some troubleshooting on one of the blowers and as a result I had to power it off. The --mode blowers came back with the following... OK - Blower1 OK. Blower1 OK. | blower1=81% blower2=0% Blower 1 state=1 speed=81% of maximum Blower 2 state=1 speed=0% of maximum ...however in Nagios everything appears as OK. The temperature check works well with the warning and critical values. A tweak to sort out the above would be amazing!
