It is essential to monitor the hardware components of various critical devices in your network to ensure continuous service availability and network uptime. OpManager, the advanced hardware monitor solution, supports monitoring the hardware status of the servers and network devices in your environment from vendors such as Cisco, Juniper, HP, Dell, Palo Alto, Huawei, and others. It monitors various important hardware parameters such as voltage, temperature, power, fan speed, processors, etc., via SNMP for your network and server devices (including Hyper-V host) and via vSphere for VMware ESX/ESXi hosts. OpManager offers in-depth server and hardware monitoring functionality for your network.
It is mandatory that SNMP is enabled in the corresponding devices as OpManager primarily uses SNMP to query device status and metrics. To install an SNMP agent on a Linux device, follow these steps .
OpManager supports hardware monitoring of HP, Dell, Supermicro and Fujitsu servers. The prerequisites for the corresponding categories are mentioned below.
If Hardware Sensor Monitors are not displayed, then please make sure that these tools are installed on the monitored server
If Hardware Sensor Monitors are not displayed, then please make sure that Dell OpenManage has been installed on the monitored server.
Supermicro's SuperDoctor agent has to be installed on the monitored server to monitor the hardware metrics.
Fujitsu's ServerView agent must be installed on the monitored server to monitor hardware metrics.
