power supply statusPower supply state
slot statusSlot state

Prerequisites​

To control your Oracle ZS, the Rest API must be configured. E.g: https://docs.oracle.com/cd/E79446_01/html/E79460/index

Setup​

  1. Install the Centreon Plugin on every Poller:
yum install centreon-plugin-Hardware-Storage-Oracle-Zs-Restapi
  1. On the Centreon Web interface in Configuration > Monitoring Connector Manager, install the Oracle ZS Rest API Pack

Host configuration​

  • Add a new Host and apply the HW-Storage-Oracle-Zs-Restapi-custom Host Template

Once the template applied, some Macros have to be configured:

MandatoryNameDescription
XAPIPORTPort used (Default: 215)
XAPIPROTOSpecify https if needed (Default: 'https')
XAPIUSERNAMEApi username
XAPIPASSWORDApi password
APIEXTRAOPTIONSAny extra option you may want to add to the command (eg. a --verbose flag)

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 (Parameters such as api-username or api-passwordhave to be adjusted):

/usr/lib/centreon/plugins/centreon_oracle_zs_restapi.pl \
--plugin=storage::oracle::zs::restapi::plugin \
--mode=pools \
--hostname='10.30.2.79' \
--port='215' \
--proto='https' \
--api-username='myapiusername' \
--api-password='myapipassword' \
--verbose

Expected command output is shown below:

OK: All pools are ok | 'Pool_Exalogic#pool.space.usage.bytes'=19730301416448B;;;0;33432025432064 'Pool_Exalogic#pool.space.free.bytes'=13176557201408B;;;0;33432025432064 'Pool_Exalogic#pool.space.usage.percentage'=59.02%;;;0;100
Pool 'Pool_Exadata' status : exported
Pool 'Pool_Exalogic' status : online, space usage total: 30.41 TB used: 17.94 TB (59.02%) free: 11.98 TB (39.41%)

The command above monitors pools (--mode=pools).

It uses api-username (--api-username='myapiusername'), an api-password (--api-password='myapipassword') and it connects to the host 10.30.2.79 (--hostname='10.30.2.79') on the port 215 (--port='215') using https (--proto='https').

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_oracle_zs_restapi.pl \
--plugin=storage::oracle::zs::restapi::plugin \
--mode=pools \
--help
