SNMP exporter for HP servers using Prometheus

[Simona Badea]

Hello all,

I'm trying to retrieve information from some HP gen 9 servers using prometheus and displaying them in grafana. Besides iLO method, is there any other way I could get processor/memory/power supply information? I'm not able to install any other application due to security reasons.

Thanks

Simona

Appears you are looking for a tool like node-exporter. Consider using node-exporter and collecting metrics from what it exports. Grafana has a dashboard for those metrics.

OP said "I'm not able to install any other application due to security reasons."

In that case, they can only talk to existing management interfaces. If the application or OS already exposes snmp or jmx or whatever, then they can talk to it with the relevant exporter. Otherwise, I think talking to the ILO is the only option (and probably the right option for power supply information anyway)

Hi there

I monitor the same hosts via the iLO interface using SNMP exporter with the relevant MIBs, Prometheus and Grafana.
