Monitoring DRAC devices in Operations Manager

After you install the Dell EMC Server Management Pack Suite, you can use the Monitoring pane of the Operations Manager to select

views that provide complete health information of the discovered Dell DRAC devices. The DRAC monitoring feature discovers and

monitors the health of the Dell DRAC devices. It includes monitoring health of the Dell DRAC devices, both at regular intervals and on

occurrence of events. The Severity Level Indicators indicates the health of the Dell DRAC devices on the network.

NOTE:

To monitor the health of DRAC devices, associate the community string Run As account with the SNMP

Monitoring Account with the target as the Dell Remote Access Controller class or respective DRAC object (if you have

different Run As accounts for different DRAC devices).
