Dell OpenManage Plug-in Version 1.0 For Nagios XI User’s Guide

Component health

This is a periodic poll based health monitoring of a Dell EMC device’s component level health status. By default, the component health service is scheduled once every four hours.

Once the discovery utility is run with the relevant option, the corresponding services are created. These services run periodically and update the overall health of the components. The component’s status and information are displayed in the Nagios XI console.

The format of the component information in the Status Information column is <Attribute>=<Value>, <Attribute>=<Value>.

For example: Status=CRITICAL, FQDD=Fan.Embedded.1, State=Enabled

Monitoring Health Instances

Be default the unhealthy instances are displayed for the discovered devices in the Nagios XI Console. You can change the value of --excludeinstance in the check_command script to view the required instance. You can perform the below steps to change the value of --excludeinstance:
  1. Click on the service for which you want to change the value of --excludeinstance.
  2. Click on Configure tab.
  3. Choose Re-configure this service option.
  4. You can delete or change the value of --excludeinstance parameter in the check script command under Monitor the service with this command section. For example,
    --excludeinstance="FQDD IN (fan_0.0,fan_0.1)"!
    Above condition excludes the instances for given values of attribute 'FQDD'
    NOTE To exclude single instances, use "==" operator.
    NOTE To exclude multiple instances, use "IN" operator with "()"
  5. Click on Update and then click on Continue.
  6. Status Information for the Service will be changed in the next check.
