No warning created although error is reported in hardware protocols
Hello everybody,
I installed OME 1.0 and everything went well. After some time spent with the configuration all my devices showed up. I configured warnings which send E-Mails, that's also working well e.g. when a system is down. Tomorrow i logged in on OME and saw a red cross at one of my VMWare-Hosts, when i switched over to the hardware protocolls it told me that there was an error on one of my DIMMs. But there were no warnings created on that event although OME knew exactly whats missing.
Did I forget to configure something? I can't find anything missing.
Best regards from Germany,
Stefan

you may be seeing a single bit error that didn't roll all the way up to the server status. or it could be the way the event alert is created.
if there was no alert then the email action would not have been taken. you can try to clear the alert from the logs of the target system and see if the error returns.

Just to clarify a basic question...did you set the managed node to point SNMP traps back to the OME server? This is described in the First Time Setup tutorial.

@Rob: Hi Rob, thanks for that hint. I checked the server and it was the only one out of 20 servers that hadn't the snmp pointing to OME.
My fault....sorry for bothering you all

Hi, we encoutered the same.
For some techincal and organizational reasons we want to avoid snmp traps for this purpose.
Is there a way to get EMail alerted just based on the server status which is polled regularly?
Thanks

We are definitely looking at the option of generating alerts which can trigger emails based on server health status change for the upcoming release.

It may be around Q3-Q4 this year.

Sounds good, Dell listens to its customers. It hope it will be worth the wait. Thank you very much!

Is this functionality based on polling results which we see in the hardware logs ?

OMe gets the device health by polling the devices. It is triggered by two different ways. There is a default status polling schedule accessible on the Manage->discovery and inventory page from the left pane.
Receiving SNMP trap also triggers a health status poll for the device. The functionality will generate alerts if health staus change is detected as a result of any of the polling cycles.
