 Some time ago i wrote a - rather crude - Nagios plugin to monitor EMC Clariion storage arrays, specifically the CX4-120 model. The plugin isn't very pretty, but it'll do in a pinch ;-) In order to run it, you need to have the command line tools ''navicli'' and ''naviseccli'' - which are provided by EMC - installed on the Nagios system and SNMP activated on the SPs of the array. A network connection from the Nagios system to the Clariion device on ports TCP/6389 and UDP/161 must be allowed. Some time ago i wrote a - rather crude - Nagios plugin to monitor EMC Clariion storage arrays, specifically the CX4-120 model.

-Since the Nagios server in my setup runs on Debian/PPC on a IBM Power LPAR and there is no native Linux/PPC version of ''navicli'' or ''naviseccli'', i had to run those tools through the [[http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/PowerVM_Lx86|IBM PowerVM LX86]] emulator. If the plugin is run in a x86 environment, the variable ''RUNX86'' has to be set to an empty value.+Since the Nagios server in my setup runs on Debian/PPC on a IBM Power LPAR and there is no native Linux/PPC version of ''navicli'' or ''naviseccli'', i had to run those tools through the [[wp>PowerVM_Lx86|IBM PowerVM LX86]] emulator.
