Dell Server - WMI Hardware Monitoring - Power Supply Status Not being caught

Status
Not open for further replies.
Historically we monitored all our servers using SNMP, which caught all our Dell Server Disk and Power Supply information nicely.



More recently we switched to WMI and although there is much that we have gained there is also pieces that we have lost. Specifically we lost the Disk and some Power Supply awareness.



We have a work around in place for the disks but we have examples of power supplies failing and not being caught until someone is physically in front of the server.



So Dell Open Manage shows it as failed but the actual status isn't showing in Solarwinds. So just looking for ideas on how to catch this?

Xymon plus Devmon, possibly??




Once fully configured, it will give you the status of all systems being monitored, on all machine its configured for, in a single web page or client, and can send alerts when anything is not working as it should, drives are getting too full, graphing loads, and just about anything else you can imagine.

You can drill down for graphs and details.
