Prerequisites
To monitor your Supermicro, the SuperDoctor agent must be configured (eg: https://www.supermicro.com/en/solutions/management-software/superdoctor) The Poller should be able to perform SNMP requests toward the Supermicro device over SNMP UDP/161 port.

How to test the Plugin and what are the main options for?
Once the plugin installed, log into your Centreon Poller CLI using the centreon-engine user account and test the Plugin by running the following command:
/usr/lib/centreon/plugins/centreon_supermicro_superdoctor_snmp.pl
--plugin=hardware::server::supermicro::superdoctor::snmp::plugin
--mode=hardware
--hostname=10.30.2.114
--snmp-version='2c'
--snmp-community='supermicro_ro'
--verbose
The command above monitors Supermicro hardware (--plugin=hardware::server::supermicro::superdoctor::snmp::plugin --mode=hardware) identified
by the IP address 10.30.2.114 (--hostname=10.30.2.114). As the Plugin is using the SNMP protocol to request the device, the related
community and version are specified (--snmp-version='2c' --snmp-community='supermicro_ro').
All the options as well as all the available thresholds can be displayed by adding the --help
parameter to the command:
/usr/lib/centreon/plugins/centreon_supermicro_superdoctor_snmp.pl
--plugin=hardware::server::supermicro::superdoctor::snmp::plugin
--mode=hardware
--help
