HP Smart Storage Arrays monitoring with Netdata
Monitors controller, cache module, logical and physical drive state and temperature using ssacli tool.
Requirements:
This module uses ssacli, which can only be executed by root. It uses
sudo and assumes that it is configured such that the netdata user can
execute ssacli as root without password.
Add to sudoers:
netdata ALL=(root) NOPASSWD: /path/to/ssacli
To collect metrics, the module executes: sudo -n ssacli ctrl all show config detail
This module produces:
- Controller state and temperature
- Cache module state and temperature
- Logical drive state
- Physical drive state and temperature
Configuration
hpssa is disabled by default. Should be explicitly enabled in python.d.conf.
hpssa: yes
Edit the python.d/hpssa.conf configuration file using edit-config from the your agent's config
directory, which is typically at /etc/netdata.
cd /etc/netdata # Replace this path with your Netdata config directory, if different
sudo ./edit-config python.d/hpssa.conf
If ssacli cannot be found in the PATH, configure it in hpssa.conf.
ssacli_path: /usr/sbin/ssacli
