The hppro_hwmon Perl script will query the HP Linux hpasmcli and hpacucli command-line tools to check or show the health of your Proliant hardware. It will check following components:

• Fans
• Memory DIMMs
• Power Supplies
• Server
• Temperature Controls
• RAID Controller
• Physical Drives
• Logical Drives

The default script comes with a standard set of components to check but can be easily customized to fit your needs.

Note: The script has been tested on standard SCSI-based systems only; YMMV with SAS/SATA based systems.

• Linux: any version that is officially supported by HP for their Proliant platform (see Proliant support matrices)
• Perl: any recent version should do
• HP System Health Application and Insight Management Agents: free download available from HP website.
• HP Array Configuration Utility CLI for Linux: free download available from HP website.

The script can be run with either of 2 options and should be executed as the root user:

-s (show): show the current hardware health/status

-c (check): report any failed hardware or problematic events (on STDOUT) and send an alert mail.

Below listing show the command executed (between square brackets) and the resulting status.
