Nagios plug-in for iLO Agentless Management
------------------------------------------
Nagios plug-in for iLO Agentless Management aims to automatically manage HPE 
ProLiant servers within the data center. With the help of the plug-in, 
the administator does not need to configure the nagios configuration file 
(/nagios_etc_path/conf.d) manually. The plug-in automatically writes the 
server configuration to the nagios configuration file 
(/nagios_etc_path/cfg_dir/ilo.cfg, for example: /etc/nagios3/conf.d/ilo.cfg 
under Ubuntu 14.04) once any of HPE ProLiant servers is discovered 
within the data center.

Requirements:
-------------
- net-snmp
- snmptrapd
- HPE ProLiant Server 
- curl
- procmail
- bash
- gcc
- make
- net-snmp-devel
{rhel}
- net-snmp-utils
- glibc-devel
{sles 11}
- apache2-mod_php53

Features:
-------------
1) Discover and monitor HPE ProLiant servers within data center automatically. There are two alternatives to discover HPE ProLiant servers.

	1.1) Active discovery: The active discovery scans all available servers 
			       in the network of the monitoring server. This 
			       approach can discovery all up and running servers
			       with the data center. This feature is supported
			       started version 1.1.0. Note that this feature
			       is a time-consuming process if your data center
			       has lots of hosts/IP addresses to be discovered.

	1.2) Passive discovery: The passive discovery discovers HPE ProLiant 
				servers once receiving the cold start traps 
				generated by those servers. The traps are 
				generated when those servers get booted 
				successfully, so this approach cannot discover 
				the up and running servers within the data 
				center.  

2) Provide the high-level server status. 

3) Display the server status in real-time if the status is changed. 

4) Categorize the preferred servers into the same host group.


Installation:
------------
Read INSTALL file.

Configuration:
--------------
Go  to the default folder
/usr/local/nagios/libexec        on Rhel/Sles
/usr/lib/nagios/plugins          on ubuntu

The hpeilo_nagios_config auto configuration script will generate configuration 
file and configure nagios hostgroup by scanning network IP range or network subnet.

# ./hpeilo_nagios_config 

Uninstallation:
---------------
Read INSTALL file.
Users need back up the ilo.cfg file for later usage before uninstallation.
The file could be in /usr/local/nagios/etc/ilo or /etc/nagios/ilo depends on how users install nagios.
