Monitoraggio dell’XtremIO EMC Storage: con NetEye non è più un problema
Se avete uno Storage XtremIO Dell EMC che vorreste monitorare, ho la soluzione che fa al caso vostro. Non molto tempo fa ho scritto un Plugin di monitoraggio per gli storage XtremIO che si occupa delle seguenti attività:
XTREMIO_CTRL_Status: monitora i controller e visualizza lo status dell’Hardware
XTREMIO_DPG_Status: monitora i gruppo DPG dallo Storage
XTREMIO_Storage_Efficiency: verifica e visualizza l’attuale efficienza di “deduplicazione e compressione” dell’XtremIO
XTREMIO_Storage_Space: controlla se vi è ancora abbastanza spazio disponibile
E come funziona?
Qui il link Plugin di monitoraggio XtremIO , da cui è possibile scaricare il plugin attuale che sarà disponibile anche in una versione successiva di NetEye. Il monitoraggio funziona attraverso delle API REST che XtremIO EMC mette a disposizione, c’è solo bisogno di un utente e una password per accedervi. È possibile creare questi utenti tramite il Web-Frontend per poi poterli utilizzare nel monitoraggio. L’archivio contiene il plug-in, un file php per pnp4nagios e un profilo di servizio per Monarch (NetEye Monitoring Configuration Frontend).
Se utilizzate NetEye, è davvero semplice implementare la soluzione, è sufficiente:
Copiare i file del Plugin (check_xtremio) nella directory /usr/lib/nagios/plugins des NetEye Servers
Caricare e importare i ProfilFiles nel menù “Profile” di Monarch
In questo modo saranno disponibili i seguenti controlli sui servizi:
XTREMIO_Cluster1_Dedup_Ratio: controllo della deduplicazione di Cluster1 LUN
XTREMIO_CTRL_Status: Stato dei Controller
XTREMIO_DPG_Status: Status dei gruppi di Data Protection
XTREMIO_Storage_Efficiency: Efficienza di compressione e deduplicazione dei dati dello storage
XTREMIO_Storage_Space: Füllstand des Storage
Di seguito ancora alcuni esempi per richiamare il comando:
Registrare e monitorare un valore specifico dell’API:
/usr/lib/nagios/plugins/check_xtremio -H <host> -U <user> -P <passwort> -T command -K types/clusters/1 -f dedup-ratio -t dedup-ratio-text
I have over 20 years of experience in the IT branch. After first experiences in the field of software development for public transport companies, I finally decided to join the young and growing team of Würth Phoenix (now Würth IT Italy). Initially, I was responsible for the internal Linux/Unix infrastructure and the management of CVS software. Afterwards, my main challenge was to establish the meanwhile well-known IT System Management Solution WÜRTHPHOENIX NetEye. As a Product Manager I started building NetEye from scratch, analyzing existing open source models, extending and finally joining them into one single powerful solution. After that, my job turned into a passion: Constant developments, customer installations and support became a matter of personal. Today I use my knowledge as a NetEye Senior Consultant as well as NetEye Solution Architect at Würth Phoenix.

With the upgrade to NetEye 4.44, we've added a lot of new features (https://www.neteye-blog.com/2025/10/neteye-4-44-release-notes/) and, from my point of view, one of the most relevant is the introduction of Elastic Stack 9.
