Hi,
We do have Openmanage and use the script by Dave Sobel for the power supply failures there and I am working on a hard drive one (though I may have found one for that too so just need to edit it to work on windows), the only problem is we have openmanage on a limited number of our linux boxes, so I was wondering if there are any openmanage equivalents for linux or a way to get linux to report the status on the command line, after that scripting is easy I'm just not a very advanced linux user, if any beyond K&R and the development community can be called one :)

Hi,
I guess "Hobbit-Out-of-the-box" wouldn't do the job. If the hardware/OS has tools to determine the status of PSU's, temperature sensors, raids, disks... then you can compile your own script to report states / failures / values to your hobbit server.
For a SUN based environment (and probably other) there are scripts available at www.deadcat.net.au
Another useful way is to monitor your devices via SNMP. You can use the bb-xsnmp.pl script from deadcat or use the devmon tool (http://devmon.sourceforge.net/) which has a more generally approach in monitoring snmp enabled devices.

Hi all,
Does hobbit have the ability to monitor power supplies and hard drive statuses? i.e. we had a hard drive failure the other day and hobbit did not warn on it, also a power supply failed today (there were 2 so the server didn't go down) and again no alert, does anyone have an ext script for these or does hobbit have the facility somewhere I don't know about?
Thanks, Jason.
