DELL PowerEdge R740 by HTTP
Overview
This is a template for monitoring DELL PowerEdge R740 servers with iDRAC 8/9 firmware 4.32 and later with Redfish API enabled via Zabbix HTTP agent that works without any external scripts.
Requirements
Zabbix version: 7.0 and higher.
Tested versions
This template has been tested on:
- DELL PowerEdge R740
Configuration
Zabbix should be configured according to the instructions in the Templates out of the box section.
Setup
1. Enable Redfish API in Dell iDRAC interface of your server.
2. Create a user for monitoring with read-only permissions in Dell iDRAC interface.
3. Create a host for Dell server with iDRAC IP as Zabbix agent interface.
4. Link the template to the host.
5. Customize values of {$API.URL}, {$API.USER}, {$API.PASSWORD} macros.
Macros used
Name | Description | Default |
---|---|---|
{$API.URL} | The Dell iDRAC Redfish API URL in the format |
<Put your URL here> |
{$API.USER} | The Dell iDRAC username. |
<Put your username here> |
{$API.PASSWORD} | The Dell iDRAC user password. |
<Put your password here> |
{$IFCONTROL} | Link status trigger will be fired only for interfaces that have the context macro equaled 1. |
