Enterprise Connector

This connector requires the Enterprise edition of MetricsHub.

Target​

Typical platform: HPE MSA

Operating system: Storage System

This connector is not available for the local host (it is applicable to remote hosts only).

Prerequisites​

Leverages: N/A

Technology and protocols: HTTP

Examples​

CLI​

metricshub HOSTNAME -t storage -c +HPEMSAREST --https --http-port 443 -u USERNAME

metricshub.yaml​

resourceGroups:
  <RESOURCE_GROUP>:
    resources:
      <HOSTNAME-ID>:
        attributes:
          host.name: <HOSTNAME> # Change with actual host name
          host.type: storage
        connectors: [ +HPEMSAREST ] # Optional, to load only this connector
        protocols:
          http:
            https: true
            port: 443 # or probably something else
            username: <USERNAME> # Change with actual credentials
            password: <PASSWORD> # Encrypted using metricshub-encrypt

Connector Activation Criteria​

The HPE MSA (REST) connector must be selected manually, and its status will be reported as OK if all the below criteria are met:

  • The HTTP Request below to the managed host succeeds:
    • GET /api/login/%{SHA256_AUTH}
    • Request Header: datatype: json
    • The response body contains: response-type&quot;:&quot;Success (regex)
