Description

This connector enables hardware monitoring for Inspur NF rack servers through the embedded BMC Redfish REST API, for example NF5280M5.

adaptec hardware inspur redfish server

Enterprise Connector

This connector requires the Enterprise edition of MetricsHub.

Supersedes

This connector supersedes:

• IpmiTool
• Redfish

Target

Typical platform: Inspur

Operating system: Out-Of-Band

This connector is not available for the local host (it is applicable to remote hosts only).

Prerequisites

Leverages: Inspur Redfish REST API

Technology and protocols: HTTP

Examples

CLI

metricshub HOSTNAME -t oob -c +InspurNFRackServerREST --https --http-port 443 -u USERNAME

metricshub.yaml

resourceGroups:
  <RESOURCE_GROUP>:
    resources:
      <HOSTNAME-ID>:
        attributes:
          host.name: <HOSTNAME> # Change with actual host name
          host.type: oob
        connectors: [ +InspurNFRackServerREST ] # Optional, to load only this connector
        protocols:
          http:
            https: true
