List of Plugins

The Redfish plugin collects out-of-band sensor data from Redfish endpoints. It can get multiple resources from different hardware that supports the Redfish protocol.

The sensor types and sensor names are defined via configuration. The following types of Redfish sensors are supported:

Redfish sensor type Collectd sensor value type collectd sensor units
Power voltage volts
Temperature temperature Celsius
Fan fanspeed rpm

Synopsis

 <Plugin redfish>
   <Query "fans">
     Endpoint "/Chassis[0]/Thermal"
     <Resource "Fans">
       <Property "ReadingRPM">
         PluginInstance "chassis-1"
         Type "rpm"
       </Property>
     </Resource>
   </Query>
   <Query "temperatures">
     Endpoint "/Chassis[0]/Thermal"
     <Resource "Temperatures">
       <Property "ReadingCelsius">
         PluginInstance "chassis-1"
         Type "degrees"
       </Property>
     </Resource>
   </Query>
   <Query "voltages">
     Endpoint "/Chassis[0]/Power"
     <Resource "Voltages">
       <Property "ReadingVolts">
         PluginInstance "chassis-1"
         Type "volts"
       </Property>
     </Resource>
   </Query>
   <Service "local">

Implementation Details

To support the Redfish based sensor monitoring, the standard Redfish interfaces are used as mentioned in the DMTF Redfish standard. The goal of the plugin is to utilise the standard REST API URLs to reach the sensor resources. In order to implement and utilize the Redfish interfaces one must understand the concept of resource maps in DMTF Redfish architecture.
