Users Guide

Telemetry is one-to-many solution for collecting and streaming the live system data from one or more PowerEdge servers
(iDRAC) to a centralized 'Remote Server Monitoring, Analysis, and Alerting service'. The feature also supports on-demand data
collection of the data.
The telemetry data includes metrics/inventory and logs/events. The data can be streamed (pushed out) or collected (pulled)
from iDRAC to or by remote consumers like Redfish client and Remote Syslog Server. The telemetry data is also provided to the
iDRAC SupportAssist data collector on demand. The data collection and report is based on predefined Redfish telemetry metrics,
trigger, and report definitions. The telemetry streaming settings can be configured through RACADM, SCP, Redfish, and Server
Configuration Profile (SCP).
To configure Telemetry, enable or select the required device reports or logs that define the behavior and frequency of data
streaming. Go to Configuration > System Settings page to configure Telemetry. Data streaming is automatic until the
Telemetry is disabled.
Following table describes the metric reports that can be generated using telemetry:
Type Metric Group Inventory Sensor Statistics Configuration Metrics
I/O Devices NICs No Yes Yes No No
FC HBAs No Yes Yes No No
Server Devices CPUs No Yes No No Yes
Memory No Yes No No Yes

To know about the field descriptions of Telemetry section, see iDRAC Online Help.
NOTE:
● StorageDiskSMARTDATA is only supported on SSD drives with SAS/SATA bus protocol and behind the BOSS controller.
● StorageSensor data is reported only for the drives in Ready / Online / Non-RAID mode and not behind the BOSS
controller.
● NVMeSMARTData is only supported for SSD (PCIeSSD / NVMe Express) drives with PCIe bus protocol (not behind
SWRAID).
● GPGPUStatistics data is only available in specific GPGPU models that support ECC memory capability.
● PSUMetrics is not available on modular platforms.
● Fan Power and PCIe Power Metrics may be displayed as 0 for some platforms.
● CUPS report has been renamed to SystemUsage in 4.40.00.00 release and it's supported on both INTEL and AMD
platforms.
Telemetry Workflow:
1. Install Datacenter license, if not installed already.
2. Configure global Telemetry settings including Enabling the telemetry and Rsyslog server network address and port using
RACADM, Redfish, SCP, or iDRAC GUI.
3. Configure the following Telemetry report streaming parameters on the required device report or log using either RACADM or
Redfish interface:
● EnableTelemetry
● ReportInterval
● ReportTriggers
NOTE: Enable iDRAC Alerts and Redfish events for the specific hardware for which you need telemetry reports.
4. Redfish client makes subscription request to the Redfish EventService on iDRAC.
