Zabbix Power Supply Sensors monitoring

Monitoring of auto-discovered IPMI power supplies sensors (sensor type code 08h) with sensor-specific discrete values (reading type 6Fh).

This template is part of RaBe's Zabbix template and helpers collection.

An external script is used for low-level discovery of the sensors (as Zabbix currently lacks LLD of IPMI sensors).

Usage

Install the IPMI sensor discovery script.
Import the Template_IPMI_Power_Supply_Sensors.xml template into your Zabbix server (click on the Raw button to download).
Add the template to your host (or stack template)
Set the following user macros on your host or template (those are required for the auto discovery to work)
{$HOST.IPMI.CONN} IP address or domain name of your IPMI host
{$HOST.IPMI.USER} IPMI user
{$HOST.IPMI.PASS} IPMI password
Add an IPMI interface to your host
Configure the IPMI parameters of your host
Check if new data arrives

Template IPMI Power Supply Sensors

IPMI template for power supplies sensors (sensor type code 08h) with sensor-specific discrete values (reading type 6Fh).

The {$HOST.IPMI.CONN}, {$HOST.IPMI.USER} and {$HOST.IPMI.PASS} macros have to be set according to your IPMI configuration.

Macros

{$HOST.IPMI.CONN} (default: localhost)
{$HOST.IPMI.PASS} (default: password)
{$HOST.IPMI.USER} (default: admin)
{$IPMI_POWER_SUPPLY_SENSOR_TYPES} (default: Power_Supply)

Discovery

Power supply IPMI sensor discovery (`ipmi-sensor-discovery.sh["{$HOST.IPMI.CONN}","{$HOST.IPMI.USER}","{$HOST.IPMI.PASS}", "{$IPMI_POWER_SUPPLY_SENSOR_TYPES}"]`)

Discovers power supply IPMI sensors with the help of the external ipmi-sensor-discovery.sh script.

Item Prototypes

Sensor $2 (ipmi.discrete-sensor[power-supply,{#IPMI_SENSOR_NAME}])
IPMI discrete sensor prototype item for a power supply (sensor type code 08h).

Trigger Prototypes

High: Power supply {#IPMI_SENSOR_NAME} failure detected on {HOST.NAME}
```
{Template IPMI Power Supply Sensors:ipmi.discrete-sensor[power-supply,{#IPMI_SENSOR_NAME}].band(#1,2)}=2
```
The IPMI power supply sensor (sensor type code 08h) is in "Power Supply Failure detected" (sensor specific offset 01h) state. The second least significant bit = 1 (VALUE & 10 = 10).
High: Power supply {#IPMI_SENSOR_NAME} has a configuration error on {HOST.NAME}
```
{Template IPMI Power Supply Sensors:ipmi.discrete-sensor[power-supply,{#IPMI_SENSOR_NAME}].band(#1,64)}=64
```
The IPMI power supply sensor (sensor type code 08h) is in "Configuration error" (sensor specific offset 06h) state. The seventh least significant bit is 1 (VALUE & 1000000 = 1000000).
High: Power supply {#IPMI_SENSOR_NAME} input lost (AC/DC) on {HOST.NAME}
```
{Template IPMI Power Supply Sensors:ipmi.discrete-sensor[power-supply,{#IPMI_SENSOR_NAME}].band(#1,8)}=8
```
The IPMI power supply sensor (sensor type code 08h) is in "Power Supply input lost (AC/DC)" (sensor specific offset 03h) state. The fourth least significant bit is 1 (VALUE & 1000 = 1000).
High: Power supply {#IPMI_SENSOR_NAME} input lost or out-of-range on {HOST.NAME}
```
{Template IPMI Power Supply Sensors:ipmi.discrete-sensor[power-supply,{#IPMI_SENSOR_NAME}].band(#1,16)}=16
```
The IPMI power supply sensor (sensor type code 08h) is in "Power Supply input lost or out-of-range" (sensor specific offset 04h) state. The fifth least significant bit is 1 (VALUE & 10000 = 10000).
High: Power supply {#IPMI_SENSOR_NAME} input out-of-range, but present on {HOST.NAME}
```
{Template IPMI Power Supply Sensors:ipmi.discrete-sensor[power-supply,{#IPMI_SENSOR_NAME}].band(#1,32)}=32
```
The IPMI power supply sensor (sensor type code 08h) is in "Power Supply input out-of-range, but present" (sensor specific offset 05h) state. The sixth least significant bit is 1 (VALUE & 100000 = 100000).
Warning: Power supply {#IPMI_SENSOR_NAME} predictive failure on {HOST.NAME}
```
{Template IPMI Power Supply Sensors:ipmi.discrete-sensor[power-supply,{#IPMI_SENSOR_NAME}].band(#1,4)}=4
```
The IPMI power supply sensor (sensor type code 08h) is in "Predictive Failure" (sensor specific offset 02h) state. The third least significant bit is 1 (VALUE & 100 = 100).
High: Power supply {#IPMI_SENSOR_NAME} presence not detected on {HOST.NAME}
```
{Template IPMI Power Supply Sensors:ipmi.discrete-sensor[power-supply,{#IPMI_SENSOR_NAME}].band(#1,1)}<>1
```
The IPMI power supply sensor (sensor type code 08h) is not in "Presence detected" (sensor specific offset 00h) state. The least significant bit is not 1 (VALUE & 1 = 0). This trigger serves as a safety catch-all for unknown states or IPMI implementation bugs.
