check_hpasm
Posted on July 15th, 2009 by lausser
Description
check_hpasm is a plugin for Nagios which checks the hardware health of Hewlett-Packard Proliant Servers. To accomplish this, you must have installed the hpasm package. The plugin checks the health of
- Processors
- Power supplies
- Memory modules
- Fans
- CPU- and board-temperatures
- Raids (ide and sas only when using SNMP)
and alerts you if one of these components is faulty or operates outside its normal parameters.
Documentation
The plugin can operate in two modes:
- Local. The plugin runs on the server which is to be checked. The command hpasmcli (from the hpasm.rpm package) must be installed.
- Remote. The plugin runs on the Nagios server. It finds out the status of the remote hardware by contacting remote server with SNMP. The hpasm package must be installed on the remote server.
nagios$ check_hpasm OK - hardware working fine nagios$ check_hpasm -H 10.0.73.30 -C public OK - hardware working fine nagios$ check_hpasm -H 10.0.73.30 -C public -P 1 OK - hardware working fine nagios$ check_hpasm -H 10.0.73.30 -C public --snmpwalk /usr/bin/snmpwalk OK - hardware working fine
Comparison of the two modes: lokal und remote.
Verbosity
For debugging purposes it can be called with the –verbose (or -v) option. It will then output the detailed status of each checked component:
nagios$ check_hpasm -v CRITICAL - dimm module 0:5 (module 5 @ cartridge 0) needs attention (degraded), System: 'proliant dl360 g5', S/N: '3UH841N09K', ROM: 'P58 08/03/2008' checking cpus cpu 0 is ok cpu 1 is ok checking power supplies powersupply 1 is ok powersupply 2 is ok checking fans fan 1 is present, speed is normal, pctmax is 50%, location is powerSupply, redundance is redundant, partner is 2 fan 2 is present, speed is normal, pctmax is 50%, location is cpu, redundance is redundant, partner is 3 fan 3 is present, speed is normal, pctmax is 50%, location is cpu, redundance is redundant, partner is 1 checking temperatures 1 ioBoard temperature is 42C (65 max) 2 ambient temperature is 18C (40 max) 3 cpu temperature is 30C (95 max) 4 cpu temperature is 30C (95 max) 5 powerSupply temperature is 29C (60 max) checking memory dimm module 0:1 (module 1 @ cartridge 0) is ok dimm module 0:2 (module 2 @ cartridge 0) is ok dimm module 0:3 (module 3 @ cartridge 0) is ok dimm module 0:4 (module 4 @ cartridge 0) is ok dimm module 0:5 (module 5 @ cartridge 0) needs attention (degraded) dimm module 0:6 (module 6 @ cartridge 0) is ok dimm module 0:7 (module 7 @ cartridge 0) is ok dimm module 0:8 (module 8 @ cartridge 0) is ok checking disk subsystem da controller 0 in slot 0 is ok controller accelerator is ok controller accelerator battery is ok logical drive 0:1 is ok (distribDataGuard) physical drive 0:0 is ok physical drive 0:1 is ok physical drive 0:2 is ok physical drive 0:3 is ok physical drive 0:4 is ok physical drive 0:5 is ok | fan_1=50% fan_2=50% fan_3=50% temp_1_ioBoard=42;65;65 temp_2_ambient=18;40;40 temp_3_cpu=30;95;95 temp_4_cpu=30;95;95 temp_5_powerSupply=29;60;60
–verbose (or -v) can be repeated several times or given a numerical argument. The maximum level is -vvv. Using this level you will see a complete dump of all detected hardware components with all details.

Blacklisting
If you want checks of failed/missing components to be skipped, so alerts caused by these are suppressed, then use the option –blacklist to blacklist them. With this option you give the plugin a list of items separated by / having the following format:
<typ>:<nr>[,<nr>...][/<typ>:<nr>[,<nr>...]]…
where <type> can take one of the following values:
| cpu | c |
| powersupply | p |
| fan | f |
| overall fan status | ofs |
| temperature | t |
| dimm | d |
| da controller | daco |
| da controller accelerator | daac |
| da controller accelerator battery | daacb |
| da logical drive | dald |
| da physical drive | dapd |
| scsi controller | scco |
| scsi logical drive | scld |
| scsi physical drive | scpd |
| fcal controller | fcaco |
| fcal accelerator | fcaac |
| fcal host controller | fcahc |
| fcal host controller overall condition | fcahco |
| fcal logical drive | fcald |
| fcal physical drive | fcapd |
| fuse | fu |
| enclosure manager | em |
The <nr> of a component can be found in the output of check_hpasm -v.

Assumed that you want to blacklist the failed memory module and the three failed hard disks (including the logical drive they belong to), you would write
d:0:5/fcapd:1:128,1:130,1:132/fcald:1:1
As an alternative you can write this string into the first line of a file and give the filename as an argument to –blacklist.
Custom temperature thresholds
If the system-default temperature thresholds should be overridden, use the –customthresholds option.
nagios$ check_hpasm ... 1 cpu temperature is 45C (62 max) 2 cpu temperature is 56C (80 max) 3 ioBoard temperature is 38C (60 max) 4 cpu temperature is 59C (80 max) 5 powerSupply temperature is 31C (53 max) ... nagios$ check_hpasm --customthresholds 1:70/5:65 ... 1 cpu temperature is 45C (70 max) 2 cpu temperature is 56C (80 max) 3 ioBoard temperature is 38C (60 max) 4 cpu temperature is 59C (80 max) 5 powerSupply temperature is 31C (65 max) ...
Performance data
With the option –perfdata you can switch on the output of performance data, if not already set as the default during installation. Should the perfdata string become too long, then use –perfdata=short which outputs a short form of the temperature tags (the location part will not be shown)
nagios$ check_hpasm OK - hardware working fine| fan_1=8%;0;0 fan_2=8%;0;0 fan_3=15%;0;0 fan_4=15%;0;0 fan_5=8%;0;0 fan_6=8%;0;0 fan_7=20%;0;0 fan_8=20%;0;0 'temp_1_processor_zone'=38;62;62 'temp_2_cpu#1'=37;73;73 'temp_3_i/o_zone'=49;68;68 'temp_4_cpu#2'=40;73;73 'temp_5_power_supply_bay'=36;44;44 nagios$ check_hpasm --perfdata short OK - hardware working fine| fan_1=8%;0;0 fan_2=8%;0;0 fan_3=15%;0;0 fan_4=15%;0;0 fan_5=8%;0;0 fan_6=8%;0;0 fan_7=20%;0;0 fan_8=20%;0;0 'temp_1'=38;62;62 'temp_2'=37;73;73 'temp_3'=49;68;68 'temp_4'=40;73;73 'temp_5'=36;44;44
Unknown memory status
With some Bios releases hpasmcli doesn’t display the memory modules correctly. The command SHOW DIMM shows only a list of modules with status n/a which is counted as a Warning. Using the –ignore-dimms you can skip memory checking without using a blacklist to avoid this warning.
Non-redundant fans
If you see a warning because all of the fans are not redundant, then this might be because ther are only single fans instead of pairs of fans on purpose. With –ignore-fan-redundancy you can suppress this warning. (See README).
Unfortunately it is not possible to show fan speed (or percent of max. speed) in SNMP mode. Therefore it is shown substituded by 50%.
Installation
- After unpacking the Archive, call the ./configure command. Attention should be paid to the –with-noinst-level option which defines the exit code of the plugin if no hpasm rpm was installed. With the option –with-degrees you tell the plugin whether you want temperature values displayed in celsius or fahrenheit. With the option –enable-perfdata you tell check_hpasm to add performance data to it’s output by default. If you don’t want to see type, serial number and biosrelease in the output, you can switch this off by using –disable-hwinfo. With –enable-hpacucli you activate checking of raid controllers.
- Grab the hpasm package suitable for your Linux distribution and install it. See the list of links below where to find it.
- If you run check_hpasm (in local mode) as a non-root user you will need sudo-privileges which allow you to call /sbin/hpasmcli as root without providing a password.

Call to participate
Please run check_hpasm -v on as many as possible different platforms. Chances are you have a rare Proliant model whose components are not detected completely. You will then see instructions on how to report this to the author.
The following line appears frequently but can be considered harmless:

I am always interested in test data. If you want to do me a favour, send me the output of
snmpwalk ... <ip-adress> 1.3.6.1.4.1.232
or if you are using the local variant, i’d like to see the output of the following script:
hpasmcli=$(which hpasmcli)
hpacucli=$(which hpacucli)
for i in server powersupply fans temp dimm
do
$hpasmcli -s "show $i" | while read line
do

December 3rd, 2009 at 17:28Possible error regarding performance output. I see that it reports that -p is not a valid option anymore, fixed that with –enable-perfdata. Also, I get no output when I run ./check_hpasm -h or –help :) Besides from that, working as a charm and reporting good it seems. We are looking into some of the new things it picked up to see if they’re correct.
Thanks, Geir

December 7th, 2009 at 19:13I am trying to blacklist an msa1000 controller but with no luck trying with the “-b” parameter. When I execute the following command I get the following output:
check_hpasm -v -H hostname -c public
…. … msa1000 controller in box 1 slot 1 needs attention msa1000 controller in box 1 slot 2 needs attention ….
I would like to blacklist these two entries. Is it possible? which argument should I send with the -b option?
thanks

December 7th, 2009 at 21:59Looks like you are using the old 3.x version of check_hpasm. You can’t blacklist a msa with it. Please upgrade to 4.1 and post the output again.

December 8th, 2009 at 19:33Jetzt verstehe ich, was da passiert ist.
fans Fan Location Present Speed of max Redundant Partner Hot-pluggable fans --- -------- ------- ----- ------ --------- ------- ------------- fans #1 I/O_ZONE Yes NORMAL 50% Yes 0 Yes fans #2 I/O_ZONE Yes NORMAL 50% Yes 0 Yes
Normalerweise sollte bei einem redundanten Fan unter der Spalte “Partner” die Nummer des anderen Fans stehen, mit dem zusammen er ein redundantes Pärchen bildet. Die Null weist darauf hin, dass etwas nicht stimmt. Das muss aber kein physikalisches Problem sein, es gibt auch zahlreiche Firmwarestände, auf die nicht 100% Verlass ist. Daher habe ich es so programmiert, dass in dem Fall der Lüfter von “redundant” auf “notRedundant” zurückgestuft wird. Dies führt aber nicht zu einem Fehler, da ein Partner=0 auch angezeigt wird, wenn z.B. bei 1-CPU-Maschinen anstelle des zweiten Lüfters nur ein Dummy eingebaut wird. In diesem Fall ist das nicht so, da man ja die Drehzahlen sieht. Zugegeben, die Ausgabe von check_hpasm entspricht nicht der von hpasmcli, aber auch dessen Angaben sind irreführend.Ich hoffe, damit können sie leben.

Great plugin, however for some mysterious reason our disk array is with the check_hpasm not recognized. We do can get output when run from commandline. My perl knowledge is too limited to debug and/or find the cause. Can you help?
Thanks

January 22nd, 2010 at 2:32I never tried it. You surely cannot monitor hp-ux, but, if at all, the hardware of a server running hp-ux. Precondition is the presence of the CPQHLT-MIB. Try “snmpwalk … 1.3.6.1.4.1.232″. If you get a response, you might give check_hpasm a try.

February 2nd, 2010 at 0:39It certainly looks like you have a fine add-on Nagios monitor for HP servers from the reviews. One issue that makes this add-on completely confusing for those of us that don’t have 200 HP servers is what parts of the HP System Management Software are we to download from HP and install on Windows servers. I see several people ask this question and all you guys do is provide a link to a drivers download page for a particular HP model. Now obviously the authors of this module know exactly what is required to be installed. Why not just give it up and give us a list? Most of us admins don’t have time to eat or take a crap, let alone go on a wild goose chase to make this thing work.

lausser Says:
February 2nd, 2010 at 15:57No, the author does not know exactly what is required to be installed. The author has also just a single HP under his desk which he bought from ebay. And it’s not even running Windows. So the only information i can offer is: “System Management Driver” + “Insight Management Agents”. To find the right software for a particular model was no problem for hundreds of users. Sorry, i spent months of my free time writing and maintaining this software for the sole purpose to give it away for free and help people. At least i had some fun writing the code. Anyone can take it and be happy with it.
What this is not: a free all-inclusive no-worries allround-package. Sorry, if an admin has not the time to eat and sleep, this is not my problem. You ask no less from me than to spent my spare time or spend my worktime (which means betray my employer) for free. This is not how Open Source works. Sorry for this rude reply.[Reply]

February 5th, 2010 at 9:45@Peter: A real admin reads all documentations about a server he bought or is about to buy and therefore would understand the possibilities of monitoring with System Management software.
lausser made a great check plugin for Nagios but it certainly won’t get you your coffee right at your desk or give you additional brain cells.
I know it’s not always easy to be an admin, nobody says thanks when everything runs smoothly, but it’s our friggin job to THINK and read and learn and think even more.

February 12th, 2010 at 4:18We have some Proliant DL380 G6 units with the 8.30 HP tool set. We have found that the hpasmcli is broken in the following manner: hpasmcli -s “show dimms” fails with: *** glibc detected *** free(): invalid pointer: 0x08068ce4 ***
but if one runs hpasmcli manually and then type the “show dimms” command, it works!
I cannot find anyone seeing this same problem, our IT group may open a ticket with HP about this since we have the latest version of the tools as far as I can tell. The IT group regressed back all the way to 7.9 to fix this problem, but now I see that it is segfaulting most of the time, not reporting all the memory and not reporting the temperatures. So I am going to have them go back to 8.30 and blacklist the dimms for now.
Obviously this isn’t a problem with check_hpasm, but have you ever seen a problem like this?
thanks

Benzke Says:
February 24th, 2010 at 17:56Hi tex, i have exactly the same issues. I also have an open ticket with hp since the 1st October 09 concerning this issue… Our G6 servers are already in production use so this is extremely annoying. This has to be the worst hardware support i have ever experienced from any company… It was over two months writing forth and back until the folks at hp finally admitted it was a problem on their side and not with my OS (rhel4). According to hp rhel4 is verified for the G6 so it really makes me wonder if those guys did run any testing on that platform at all before releasing them to the public. Cheers, Benzke

March 1st, 2010 at 12:17“*** glibc detected *** free(): invalid pointer…..” is not a check_hpasm-message. It surly comes from the hpasmcli command (which is executed by check_hpasm).
hpasmcli -s “show dimm”

And i try to execute from Nagios poller i receive : CRITICAL – dimm module 0:17 (module 17 @ cartridge 0) needs attention (n/a), dimm module 0:18 (module 18 @ cartridge 0) needs attention (n/a), dimm module 0:25 (module 25 @ cartridge 0) needs attention (n/a), dimm module 0:26 (module 26 @ cartridge 0) needs attention (n/a)CRITICAL – dimm module 0:17 (module 17 @ cartridge 0) needs attention (n/a), dimm module 0:18 (module 18 @ cartridge 0) needs attention (n/a), dimm module 0:25 (module 25 @ cartridge 0) needs attention (n/a), dimm module 0:26 (module 26 @ cartridge 0) needs attention (n/a)
The Server is fine working actually and HP agent answer well , do you have any idea ?

April 17th, 2010 at 12:11I never saw this behaviour. So you don’t use the SNMP method, but are executing check_hpasm locally on the server (where you have a hpasmcli command)? Are only Dimm modules shown as failed or also other components?

April 22nd, 2010 at 23:35@lausser, hpasmcli work as well , no dimm problems .. I try to restart snmp and hpasm, the server reboot as well … Locally check_hpasm work as well but if i try locally check_hpasm -H 127.0.0.1 , same problem !!
I dont where the snmp has been corrupted … i have many server identic just one cause it .. Thnaks ..

April 27th, 2010 at 15:22Hallo lausser, wir haben das Problem, dass das Plugin manchmal in einen Timeout läuft (WAN Strecke…). Gibt es eine Möglichkeit dem Plugin zu sagen das es bei einem TimeOut kein Critical State geben soll, sondern lediglich Warning?
Danke für die Info.
[Reply]
lausser Reply:
April 27th, 2010 at 16:27Hi, ich sehe gerade, daß das Plugin selbst gar kein Timeout-Handling macht. Es ist also Nagios, das die Zeitüberschreitung feststellt und den Errorlevel festlegt. Ich würde ggf. die standardmässigen 60s mit dem Parameter service_check_timeout hochdrehen.

April 27th, 2010 at 16:42Hi, ja das hab ich schon getan, teilweise auch auf 90, wobei ich, wenn ich mich durch die status.dat grepe execution_time bis 170 sekunden (!!) habe. der timeout also einfach ignoriert wird.

May 11th, 2010 at 11:31Ist es möglich bzw. sinnvoll, bei Angabe von –blacklist, die entsprechenden Komponenten auch nicht mehr als Performancedaten zu liefern? Wir haben hier DL380 im Einsatz, die immer mal wieder Fantasiewerte bei 3 Sensoren liefern, so schauen die pnp4nagios-Grafiken auch nicht gerade toll aus.
Vielen Dank für Eure Arbeit!

May 12th, 2010 at 19:44Könntest du bitte was ausprobieren? Such dir im Plugin die Routine “sub add_perfdata” und ändere die letzte Zeile folgendermassen:
push (@{$self->{perfdata}}, $str) unless $self->{blacklisted};

June 8th, 2010 at 8:01I have recently installed the plugin on several HP DL360 servers, but on at least two servers, when running the check_hpasm -v, the power supplies don’t show up.
Any ideas

So querying powersupplies is simply not supported on this type of machine (or maybe with this version of the hpasm software) You can see it withpowersupply Command NOT supported on this server at this time fans Command NOT supported on this server at this time

sak Says:
June 8th, 2010 at 17:54hi lausser,
first, thanks for this soft. second, I have a doubt about the fans, check_hp say the fans are notRedundant:
fan 1 is present, speed is normal, pctmax is 25%, location is system, redundance is notRedundant, partner is 0 fan 2 is present, speed is normal, pctmax is 25%, location is system, redundance is notRedundant, partner is 0 fan 3 is present, speed is normal, pctmax is 47%, location is system, redundance is notRedundant, partner is 0 fan 4 is present, speed is normal, pctmax is 47%, location is system, redundance is notRedundant, partner is 0
but hpasmcli say they are redundant:
hpasmcli> show fans Fan Location Present Speed of max Redundant Partner Hot-pluggable — ——– ——- —– —— ——— ——- ————-
1 SYSTEM Yes NORMAL 25% Yes 0 Yes
2 SYSTEM Yes NORMAL 25% Yes 0 Yes
3 SYSTEM Yes NORMAL 47% Yes 0 Yes
4 SYSTEM Yes NORMAL 47% Yes 0 Yes
it’s a bug on check_hp that is flipping the boolean ?

Nikolas Nunez Reply:
June 9th, 2010 at 12:13The output of these commands are the same as your report, powersupply and fans command NOT supported. I have compared the hpasm from other server and it’s a different version. So i’m trying to update the hpasm to be the same.
will keep you posted
[Reply]
Nikolas Nunez Reply:
June 9th, 2010 at 14:51The issues seems to be when the plugin communicates with the following hpasm file, hpasm-7.5.1-8.rhel4. I have since once again update the PSP and rebooted the server and all is fine.
[Reply]
lausser Reply:
June 10th, 2010 at 0:39I had a look at the fan-related code and i found a comment ” # cpqHeFltTolFanRedundantPartner=0: partner not avail”. I remember now, that a partner=0/redundant=yes actually means “not redundant”. It’s a bug in hpasm, which simply outputs incorrect information here. You have fans 1-4 in your system, fan 0 does not exist and can thus be no partner.

June 11th, 2010 at 12:08I have an old DL380 G2, that the plugin states the following WARNING – status of all 6 dimms is n/a (please upgrade firmware).

I have run the script and the following is displayed, dimm DIMM Configuration dimm —————— dimm Cartridge #: 0 dimm Module #: 1 dimm Present: Yes dimm Form Factor: 8h dimm Memory Type: 5h dimm Size: 128 MB dimm Speed: 133 MHz dimm Status: N/A dimm dimm Cartridge #: 0 dimm Module #: 4 dimm Present: Yes dimm Form Factor: 8h dimm Memory Type: 5h dimm Size: 128 MB dimm Speed: 133 MHz dimm Status: N/A dimm dimm Cartridge #: 0 dimm Module #: 2 dimm Present: Yes dimm Form Factor: 8h dimm Memory Type: 5h dimm Size: 128 MB dimm Speed: 133 MHz dimm Status: N/A dimm dimm Cartridge #: 0 dimm Module #: 5 dimm Present: Yes dimm Form Factor: 8h dimm Memory Type: 5h dimm Size: 128 MB dimm Speed: 133 MHz dimm Status: N/A dimm dimm Cartridge #: 0 dimm Module #: 3 dimm Present: Yes dimm Form Factor: 8h dimm Memory Type: 5h dimm Size: 256 MB dimm Speed: 133 MHz dimm Status: N/A dimm dimm Cartridge #: 0 dimm Module #: 6 dimm Present: Yes dimm Form Factor: 8h dimm Memory Type: 5h dimm Size: 256 MB dimm Speed: 133 MHz dimm Status: N/A

lausser Reply:
June 11th, 2010 at 13:19Well, bad luck. As you can see from the section “Unknown memory status” in the documentation above, there are cases, where memory status cannot be aquired. (maybe it’s the bios, maybe the dimms don’t support a status at all, i don’t know). At least you can get rid of the error message with –ignore-dimms.

June 14th, 2010 at 17:14Ok, now i understand. The controller accelerator (and battery) number is the same as the controller above. (1, 2) It should work with –blacklist daac:1,2 I think blacklisting a controller accelerator also blacklists the accelerator battery. If not, use –blacklist daac:1,2/dacb:1,2checking disk subsystem da controller 1 in slot 1 is ok controller accelerator is not controller accelerator battery is notPresent da controller 2 in slot 0 is ok controller accelerator is ok controller accelerator battery is notPresent
Nikolas Nunez Reply:
June 14th, 2010 at 19:17Thanks for the information. I have applied the blacklist option but I have still an alarm in regards to the controller accelerator needing attention.
Does the alarm correspond then to the issues that the controller accelerator and controller accelerator battery is not Present.
How would it then be albe to remove the alarm.

June 11th, 2010 at 16:25Hallo, grossartiges Skript. Wir benutzen es bei uns für DL360 und DL380 von G3 – G6. Wir hatten in der Vergangenheit defekte RAM-Module mit check_hpasm erkannt und getauscht. Eine Frage, währe es möglich bei allen gecheckten Komponenten die Eckdaten bei -v anzugeben? Bsp.
[pre] dimm module 0:1 (module 1 @ cartridge 0, 1024MB 400MHz) is ok | d:0:1 dimm module 0:2 (module 2 @ cartridge 0, 1024MB 400MHz) is ok | d:0:2 dimm module 0:3 (module 3 @ cartridge 0, 1024MB 400MHz) is ok | d:0:3 dimm module 0:4 (module 4 @ cartridge 0, 1024MB 400MHz) is ok | d:0:4 dimm module 0:5 (module 5 @ cartridge 0, 512MB 400MHz) needs attention (degraded) | d:0:5 dimm module 0:6 (module 6 @ cartridge 0, 512MB 400MHz) is ok | d:0:6 dimm module 0:7 (module 7 @ cartridge 0, 512MB 400MHz) is ok | d:0:7 dimm module 0:8 (module 8 @ cartridge 0, 512MB 400MHz) is ok [/pre]
Somit kann man sofort beim HP-Support anrufen und hat Serien-Nr., defektes Teil und die Eckdaten für das Ersatzteil auf einem Bildschirm (Bsp. bei Festplatten währe da die Größe + RPM).
Das währe echt super. Weiter so!!
