IBM DataPower (SNMP)

Description

This connector discovers the enclosure and the disks of IBM DataPower Appliances as well as various environment sensors (temperatures, fans, power supplies). It relies on the SNMP protocol.

hardware ibm

Enterprise Connector

This connector requires the Enterprise edition of MetricsHub.

Target

Typical platform: IBM DataPower

Operating system: Out-Of-Band

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

Prerequisites

Leverages: IBM DataPower SNMP Agent

Technology and protocols: SNMP

Examples

CLI

metricshub HOSTNAME -t oob -c +IBMDataPower --snmp v2c --community public

metricshub.yaml

resourceGroups:
  <RESOURCE_GROUP>:
    resources:
      <HOSTNAME-ID>:
        attributes:
          host.name: <HOSTNAME> # Change with actual host name
          host.type: oob
        connectors: [ +IBMDataPower ] # Optional, to load only this connector
        protocols:
          snmp:
            version: v2c # Read documentation for v1, v2c and v3
            community: public # or probably something more secure
