Working for iDrac7's on R620's here (via IPMI). Added a readonly users to the iDrac with network access allowed, configured under 'IPMI Settings' on the host in observium, 'IPMI Interface' needs to be 'IPMI v2.0 RMCP+'

Tested via CLI from the observium host first like so

ipmitool -I lanplus -H ip-address-of-idrac -U readonlyuser -P secretreadonlypassword sensor

Works great. Power usage on the system is a wonderful thing :)

Hi Rob,

Most dracs don't do SNMP for sensors; I've been told version 8 will/does.
Try adding IPMI credentials to the device setup (or even more logical, add the DRAC IPMI credentials to the device the BMC is actually in).

Dear all,

Has anyone had any success in using observium with idracs? The auto discover doesn’t appear to find any useful sensors other than the physical nic of the idrac itself. Has anyone else worked on support for idracs?

All the best

rob
