Telegraf ipmi plugin

Get bare metal metrics using the command line utility ipmitool

see ipmitool(https://sourceforge.net/projects/ipmitool/files/ipmitool/)

If no servers are specified, the plugin will query the local machine sensor stats via the following command:

ipmitool sdr

When one or more servers are specified, the plugin will use the following command to collect remote host sensor stats:

ipmitool -I lan -H SERVER -U USERID -P PASSW0RD sdr

Measurements

• ipmi_sensor:

  • Tags: name, unit
  • Fields:
    • status
    • value

The server tag will be made available when retrieving stats from remote server(s).

Configuration

# Read metrics from the bare metal servers via IPMI
[[inputs.ipmi_sensor]]
  ## optionally specify the path to the ipmitool executable
  # path = "/usr/bin/ipmitool"
  #
  ## optionally specify one or more servers via a url matching
  ##  [username[:password]@][protocol[(address)]]
  ##  e.g.
  ##    root:passwd@lan(127.0.0.1)
  ##
  ## if no servers are specified, local machine sensor stats will be queried
  ##
  # servers = ["USERID:PASSW0RD@lan(192.168.1.1)"]

Output

When retrieving stats from a remote server:
