Olleh Horeca,
The unix agent does run any shellscript, but it needs code on the Observium side to actually do anything with it. Collectd is another avenue into Observium but there is even less chance of alerting happening there.

Hello,
please excuse, i am totally new to observium (not to monitoring) and the list.
At the moment i watch different data sources (WLAN availability, RAID status, open Ports) - which are not covered by snmp agents or features - through hand crafted bash scripts and mail notification. Sometimes i use code snippets from the web to just not reinvent the wheel. [https://www.monkeybrains.net/~rudy/example/raid_status.html as an example].
Is there a `generic' way to get/parse custom output of local scripts via ssh (public key) remote into observium? Together with the mentioned raid status scripts it would be possible to hook that into observium.
In former times i build up a monitoring solution built on remstats, who has something called `skeleton-collector' where i could hook in my own shell code to source results into remstats monitoring. Is this functionality what is called the unix agent in observium? Or are there already interfaces to use custom (shell) code?

Hi Tom,
If we are able to provide you a demo machine for a week or two that has an Adaptec card in it, would that be of value to you?
It would be a blank machine with the OS of your choice if we were to proceed J
Thanks!

Yeah, LSI does, I have LSI controllers and the support I wrote is for their SNMP extension. (we already monitor disk status stuff from there). Just wondering about the Adaptec ones as you mentioned them...
Next up on the list after Areca and LSI is HP SmartArray, as I have one of those as well in production :-)

Will check and come back to you on that.
Thanks!

After the new CE release ;>
Soon(tm) - but no ETA, sorry.
Do Adaptec controllers happen to have some sort of SNMP agent on/for them?

Do you have an idea when you will have it released (ready)?

Lane,
I'm currently working on "RAID" infrastructure - I have working discovery for Areca and LSI right now; still needs some work though. But there is no infrastructure to do this right now.
You could hack something with a bunch of code to parse the RAID controller status from the agent scripts, and create sensors with discover_sensor if you wish, but meh. :)

I am looking to setup an alert check for LSI & Adaptec RAID arrays, however looking over the docs and I uncertain on how to properly configure it.
Here is what I think I know: -Use the Observium agent to query the RAID controller and drive status -Create an alert check under “sensor”
What I don’t know -The rest of the variables for the alert check
Thanks guys!
