Object discoveries by iDRAC using WS-MAN
Table 12. Objects discovered through iDRAC using WS-MAN
Discovery Object Description
Dell Server Discovery Classies the Dell servers and populates the key attributes and
components.
Dell Device Helper Discovery Discovers the DellDeviceHelper as an object.
Dell Host NIC Correlation Discovery
Correlates the Host NIC interfaces with Physical interfaces.
NOTE: Teamed network interfaces will show only one of
the NICs in the team.
Monitoring
After you install the Dell EMC Server Management Pack Suite, you can use the Monitoring pane of the OpsMgr to select views that
provide health information of the discovered Dell servers. The Server and Rack Workstation Monitoring (Licensed) feature discovers and
monitors the health of the Dell servers.
NOTE
: To receive SNMP alerts from devices discovered through the iDRAC access via Host OS feature, you must install SNMP
services on the Managed Node and set the Management Server IP address as the trap destination in the SNMP Services.
To install SNMP services on the Managed Node, perform the following steps:
1 Navigate to Server Manager > Roles and Features > Features for the managed node.
2
Install SNMP Services.
3 From the list of available services, right-click SNMP Services and select Properties.
4 In the SNMP Services Properties (Local Computer) window, select the Traps tab.
5 Set a Community string in the Community name eld and provide the Management Server IP address in the Trap Destinations
eld and then click OK.
You will now be able to receive SNMP traps for the node discovered through iSM using the iDRAC access via Host OS (Experimental)
method.
The Severity Level Indicators indicates the health of the Dell servers on the network. It includes monitoring health of Modular, Monolithic
systems and supported Dell Precision Racks and their components at regular intervals.
As the system components monitored through Server and Rack Workstation Monitoring, which is a license free monitoring feature, and
the Server and Rack Workstation Monitoring (Licensed) feature are not exactly the same, it is possible that the overall server health that
is shown through license-free (OMSA) and licensed (iDRAC using WS-MAN, iDRAC access via Host OS, or iSM using WMI) methods could
be dierent. Drill-down to the specic component status when you observe such discrepancies to resolve specic problem conditions in
the system component to bring the overall health of the server to OK state.
