HP MSA2012i
HP MSA2012fc
HP MSA2324i
HP P2000 G3 MSA (iSCSI & FC)


Usage : check_msa_hardware.pl -H [ hostname | IP address ] -C [ SNMP community ]
Don't forget to enable SNMP on the MSA.

This plugin checks HP MSA probes. Thoses probres can be temperature sensors, voltaic sensors, hard disk states (from SMART), power supply states, and many things more.
Each probes send their status which can be "warning" or "critical" according to their severity. Then, the worst state is send back to Nagios.

Example usage:
[root@supervision libexec]# ./check_msa_hardware.pl -C public -H 10.1.1.4
HP StorageWorks MSA2012i: Power Supply 2 Voltage, 12V: 1.75V [power-supply]. Power Supply 2 Voltage, 5V: 0.02V [power-supply]. Overall status value: Failed [enclosure]. CRITICAL


There is a new option --list which list all available probes on your HP MSA:

[root@supervision libexec]# ./check_msa_hardware.pl -H 10.1.1.4 -C public --list -v 2

Nota1: It should now work with SNMP V1 and V2
Nota2: People having Service check did not exit properly error messages may change the nagios command definition by adding the full path to perl executable in front of this plugin:
define command{
command_name check_msa_sensors
command_line /usr/bin/perl $USER1$/check_msa_hardware.pl -H $HOSTADDRESS$ -C $_HOSTSNMPCOMMUNITY$ -v 2
}
This is needed because your nagios may be built with Embeded Perl in it.

Good check. Tested and confirmed working on MSA2052.

Had to install the following perl modules for it to work:
perl-Switch
perl-Net-SNMP
perl-Monitoring-Plugin
net-snmp-utils

CentOS 7
bySheri, February 5, 2019
It works manually, but i have problem adding it in nagios
In CentOS 7.5, it'couldn't find some modules.
You must enable the epel repository and install:
yum install perl-Monitoring-Plugin-0.38-1.el7.1.noarch
and as written below
yum install perl-Net-SNMP perl-Nagios-Plugin.

[root@testix tmp]# perl check_msa_hw.pl -C public -H 10.154.2.1
HP P2000 G3 SAS: OK
bySupraWez, December 21, 2016
Confirmed this works with HP MSA 1040 units,

Received some errors so had to install the following on CentOS 6 install to get it working :-

yum install epel-release
yum install perl-Net-SNMP perl-Nagios-Plugin

Used the following commands to determine the packages needed :-

yum provides '*/Net/SNMP.pm'
yum provides '*/Nagios/Plugin.pm'

Just trying to find a way to monitor disks now.
I have already a check HP MSA running on a "old" nagios server.
I like to install it on a new one. a ubuntu-14.04.4 server.
When i do a test. i get this.
-----------------
Can't locate Nagios/Plugin.pm in @INC (you may need to install the Nagios::Plugin module) (@INC contains: /usr/local/nagios/libexec /usr/lib/nagios/plugins /etc/perl /usr/local/lib/perl/5.18.2 /usr/local/share/perl/5.18.2 /usr/lib/perl5 /usr/share/perl5 /usr/lib/perl/5.18 /usr/share/perl/5.18 /usr/local/lib/site_perl .) at ./check_msa_hardware.pl line 39.

i have installed Monitoring Plugins. Nagios Plugins not exist anymore.... :-(

https://www.monitoring-plugins.org/news/new-project-name.html

But i have stil the same error. How to fix this?
Hi,
Check is good, thanks.
But what about disk state ? Passed week we have one of our 4 disks who crashed.
Would it be warned by the check ?
Thanks

Plugin works well, tested on HP MSA 2040.
Only possible improvement is the addition of performance data.
byxcomm, March 6, 2014
Has been working great tell I updated perl, and they are removing the Switch module.
Any idea if your going to update it to not use the switch function?
Owner's reply

Which version of perl do you use?

Just installed and it seems to work with an MSA 2040.

Check works also on HP MSA P2000 configured with SNMP version 2. Excellent check. THNX!!!
