[Xymon] HP ILO via DEVMON was Re: Monitoring HP ILO via Ssh

[Betsy Schwartz]

Not having much luck with this.

Our HP servers are mostly HP Proliants, G5 through G8, mostly blades with
some standalone, plus the  HP bladesystems.
The HP's are running a mix of Linux, x86 Solaris, VMWare ESXi and
Windows.I'd like to get the information out of the ILO without having to
run the HP utilities, because that gives us OS-independent monitoring.

The ILO does have an option to take SNMP queries (as opposed to passing
them through to an agent on the OS) but I don't think these are the right
MIB's for these boxes.  I can do an snmpwalk from my xymon dev server, but
SNMPget just gets me variations on "There is no such variable name in this
MIB " or " No Such Instance currently exists at this OID".  (are the MIB's
different for ILO vs pass-through SNMP, do you suppose?)

This is the tip of SNMPwalk from one of our newest G8's
SNMPv2-MIB::sysDescr.0 = STRING: Integrated Lights-Out 4 1.22 Apr 19 2013
SNMPv2-MIB::sysObjectID.0 = OID: SNMPv2-SMI::enterprises.232.9.4.10

and this from one of the older boxes:

SNMPv2-MIB::sysDescr.0 = STRING: Linux
hostname.example.com2.6.18-308.13.1.0.1.el5 #1 SMP Wed Aug 22 05:10:25
EDT 2012 x86_64
SNMPv2-MIB::sysObjectID.0 = OID: NET-SNMP-MIB::netSnmpAgentOIDs.10

This *is* the first time I've installed either SNMP or Devmon, I've got to
find a simpler test  case to experiment with.
