You can track adapter multipath status on AIX, VIOS, Linux on Power and Linux x86 servers.
Just activate
OS agent on monitored hosts.
OS agent configuration
- AIX: nothing is needed, all works automatically
- Linux:
Mutltipath info on Linux is provided only via cmd '/usr/sbin/multipath -ll' which can be run under root only.
Follow these steps to make it work:
- enable sudo for lpar2rrd user:
visudo
lpar2rrd ALL = (root) NOPASSWD: /usr/sbin/multipath -ll
- use this crontab cmd to run the agent, add "-m" option
* * * * * /usr/bin/perl /opt/lpar2rrd-agent/lpar2rrd-agent.pl -m <XorMon NG server hostname/IP> > /var/tmp/lpar2rrd-agent.out 2>&1
