Home-Assistant-Configuration iDrac Module.

Hi.

I will start with saying thanks for the iDrac module you have created.

I have done a few changes to get the input voltage and current from both PSU's in my HA, will add that below but i am sure you also know how to add it. :)

I could read that you had some problems with getting the information out from the iDrac, so did also want to let you know that librenms do have some great MIB's they use as there is a lot more we could pull from the iDrac.

Link to there MIB's collections: https://github.com/librenms/librenms/tree/master/mibs/drac

Beside the Temp, Voltage, Currents and Fans that you already read we can also get a state of the internals, as i have shown in the 2 screenshots from my own r720xd.

I am sure we can get the HDD state also but i have flashed my raid card to IT mode as i am running zfs so the iDrac can't see any of my drives anymore.

I might be forking the iDrac script to read the state as i could use that for some automatizations in case a state switch.

state 1 State 2

The changes to get the PSU Voltage and Current:


     - name: "PSU 1 Voltage"
        state: "{{states('sensor.RawDellServerPSU1Voltage')}}"
        unit_of_measurement: V
        device_class: power
        state_class: measurement

      - name: "PSU 2 Voltage"
        state: "{{states('sensor.RawDellServerPSU2Voltage')}}"
        unit_of_measurement: V
        device_class: power .
        state_class: measurement

      - name: "PSU 1 Current"
        state: "{{states('sensor.RawDellServerPSU1Current')}}"
        unit_of_measurement: A
        device_class: power
        state_class: measurement

      - name: "PSU 2 Current"
        state: "{{states('sensor.RawDellServerPSU2Current')}}"
        unit_of_measurement: A
        device_class: power 
        state_class: measurement

Hi. @Mushishi could you please share your whole configuration? I can't understand anything from the MIB you linked :( Currently im playing with the config provided by @genestealer but there is no power consumption (1.3.6.1.4.1.674.10892.5.4.600.30.1.6.1.3) provided via SNMP:

(dinth@dinth-desktop-linux:~$ snmpwalk -v 2c -c xxx 10.10.1.25 1.3.6.1.4.1.674.10892.5.4.600.30.1.6.1
iso.3.6.1.4.1.674.10892.5.4.600.30.1.6.1.1 = INTEGER: 8
iso.3.6.1.4.1.674.10892.5.4.600.30.1.6.1.2 = INTEGER: 196

Hi.

Sure here is the config I have in HA right now. I haven't looked into adding more yet so haven't looked that much into the mibs from librenms yet.

Hi. @Mushishi could you please share your whole configuration? I can't understand anything from the MIB you linked :( Currently im playing with the config provided by @genestealer but there is no power consumption (1.3.6.1.4.1.674.10892.5.4.600.30.1.6.1.3) provided via SNMP:
(dinth@dinth-desktop-linux:~$ snmpwalk -v 2c -c xxx 10.10.1.25 1.3.6.1.4.1.674.10892.5.4.600.30.1.6.1
iso.3.6.1.4.1.674.10892.5.4.600.30.1.6.1.1 = INTEGER: 8
iso.3.6.1.4.1.674.10892.5.4.600.30.1.6.1.2 = INTEGER: 196

I think i can see your problem. You only use one PSU correct.?

This is my reply to the same walk with 2 PSU's

 snmpwalk -v 2c -c xxx10.10.10.253 1.3.6.1.4.1.674.10892.5.4.600.30.1.6
iso.3.6.1.4.1.674.10892.5.4.600.30.1.6.1.1 = INTEGER: 8
iso.3.6.1.4.1.674.10892.5.4.600.30.1.6.1.2 = INTEGER: 0
iso.3.6.1.4.1.674.10892.5.4.600.30.1.6.1.3 = INTEGER: 196

But i might be wrong in that thought but still change the baseoid in Dell Server Power to 2 and not 3 at the end as you are lacking 1 sensor that me and @genestealer have at least. :D

Oct 10 '22 15:10 Mushishi

@Mushishi hello.... so i added your modified yaml file to my system and i am still not getting voltage and current readings from both my PSU's. one is showing and the other is not.

i also seem to have double the sensors... i think?? and they aren't showing much either. i have the ones i showed above and if i scroll down in my sensors a little more i see...

any ideas?

Jan 25 '23 14:01 Menz01

@Mushishi are you still monitoring this thread by chance?

Feb 05 '23 18:02 Menz01

Would that be a no?

My only question is do I need to sniff out my own baseoid or are the ones in the configuration universal?

Never got any response to my questions
