Usage

check_dellwarranty.rb [options]
-H, --hostname HOSTNAME Hostname to get warranty status for. Uses SNMP
-s, --servicetag ServiceTag ID to check
-C, --community <community> SNMP Community to use when polling for service tag
--snmpver <snmpver> SNMP Version to use when polling for service tag
-w, --warning WARNDAYS Warning threshold for number of days
remaining on contract (Default: 90)
-c, --critical CRITDAYS Critical threshold for number of days
remaining on contract (Default: 30)
-D, --distant Consider only the contract expiring in the
most distant future
-l, --link Include an HTML link to Dell's warranty page for
this server
-v, --verbose Enable verbose output
-d, --debugging Enable debugging output

You must supply either a hostname or a service tag. If a hostname is supplied, this script will poll OpenManage on the server via SNMP to retrieve the service tag.

Caveats

Change the hashbang line to point to your Ruby installation
Only tested on REE 1.8.7
You must install the 'snmp' Gem (or have the snmp Ruby library available by some other means)
