Disc Status

[sergeymx]

(Sorry for my English.)

i run local ipmimonitoring:
...
110 | Disk0_Status | Drive Slot | Nominal | N/A | N/A | 'Drive Presence'
111 | Disk1_Status | Drive Slot | Nominal | N/A | N/A | 'Drive Presence'
112 | Disk2_Status | Drive Slot | Nominal | N/A | N/A | 'Drive Presence'
113 | Disk3_Status | Drive Slot | Nominal | N/A | N/A | 'OK'
114 | Disk4_Status | Drive Slot | Nominal | N/A | N/A | 'OK'
115 | Disk5_Status | Drive Slot | Nominal | N/A | N/A | 'OK'
....

i run local (and exporter):
...
ipmi_sensor_state{id="110",name="Disk0_Status",type="Drive Slot"} 0
ipmi_sensor_state{id="111",name="Disk1_Status",type="Drive Slot"} 0
ipmi_sensor_state{id="112",name="Disk2_Status",type="Drive Slot"} 0
ipmi_sensor_state{id="113",name="Disk3_Status",type="Drive Slot"} 0
ipmi_sensor_state{id="114",name="Disk4_Status",type="Drive Slot"} 0
ipmi_sensor_state{id="115",name="Disk5_Status",type="Drive Slot"} 0
...
and
...
ipmi_sensor_value{id="110",name="Disk0_Status",type="Drive Slot"} NaN
ipmi_sensor_value{id="111",name="Disk1_Status",type="Drive Slot"} NaN
ipmi_sensor_value{id="112",name="Disk2_Status",type="Drive Slot"} NaN
ipmi_sensor_value{id="113",name="Disk3_Status",type="Drive Slot"} NaN
ipmi_sensor_value{id="114",name="Disk4_Status",type="Drive Slot"} NaN
ipmi_sensor_value{id="115",name="Disk5_Status",type="Drive Slot"} NaN
...

The server itself has only 3 disks, I don't quite understand how I can allocate only the existing disks?
Thanks.

Are your drives hidden behind a RAID HBA?
Are you running the exporter as root?

yes (Through BMС).

Are you running the exporter as root?

exporter run as prometheus
I add in fie /etc/sudoers:
...
prometheus ALL = NOPASSWD: /usr/sbin/ipmimonitoring,
/usr/sbin/ipmi-sensors,
/usr/sbin/ipmi-dcmi,
/usr/sbin/ipmi-raw,
/usr/sbin/bmc-info,
/usr/sbin/ipmi-chassis,
/usr/sbin/ipmi-sel

I think the exporter docs say it must be run as root.

That said, IMHO, I personally would use a dedicated exporter for drives. YMMV.

Sorry, I was just following the documentation. Adding an entry to sudoers is done to increase privileges to root.

Sorry, I don't quite understand what YMMV is.

I am simply amazed by the fact that the ipmimonitoring command shows disabled disks, but the export that runs the same command does not show this.
