I'm using GFI Remote Management to monitor our servers, but have not been able to figure out how to set up the custom SNMP checks using OID.<br />
<br />
The server I'm testing is a HP Proliant DL380 G7 with SNMP service enabled.<br />
I downloaded GetIf, but I can't get any response from the server. I enter the ip adress of the server as host name, but get 'No SNMP Response from xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx' even when running GetIf locally on the server.<br />
<br />
Does anyone know how to get GetIf working, or have the correct OID's for HP Proliant DL380 G7?<br />
<br />
Thanks

SNMP Checks on HP Proliant

Servers are computing devices that are similar to desktop computers in that they have the same basic components, but are significantly different in size, configuration and purpose. Servers are usually accessed over a network, and many run unattended, without a computer monitor, input device, audio hardware or USB interfaces. Many servers do not have a graphical user interface (GUI), and are configured and managed remotely. Servers typically include hardware redundancy such as dual power supplies, RAID disk systems, and ECC memory, along with extensive pre-boot memory testing and verification. Critical components might be hot swappable, and to guard against overheating, servers might have more powerful fans or use water cooling.

Server Hardware

Networking is the process of connecting computing devices, peripherals and terminals together through a system that uses wiring, cabling or radio waves that enable their users to communicate, share information and interact over distances. Often associated are issues regarding operating systems, hardware and equipment, cloud and virtual networking, protocols, architecture, storage and management.

Networking

Network Management involves issues that are independent of specific hardware or software, including email policies, upgrade planning, backup scheduling and working with managed service providers for Desktop-As-A-Service (DaaS), Software-As-A-Service (SaaS) and the like through the use of tools, coupled with manufacturer standards, best practice guidelines, policies and procedures plus all other relevant documentation. Network management also includes monitoring, alerting and reporting, management reporting, planning for device or service updates, the backup of configurations, the setting of key performance indicators and measures (KPIs/KPMs), associated service level agreements and problem records as part of the IT Service Management (ITSM) framework.
