Fujitsu ServerView Check Reference

The Fujitsu ServerView check monitors the hardware health of Fujitsu PRIMERGY servers over SNMP. It queries the server's ServerView agents for overall status, temperatures, fans, power supplies, memory, and RAID.

Configuration fields

The table lists every field in the order it appears in the check editor.

Field	Type	Required	Default	Description
Server host / IP (OS, not iRMC)	String	Yes	—	Hostname or IP of the server's operating system, where the ServerView agents run (not the iRMC)
SNMP version	Select (v2c / v3)	Yes	v2c	SNMP protocol version used to query the server
SNMP port	Number	No	161	UDP port the server answers SNMP on
SNMP Community	String	No	public	SNMP v2c community string (shown when version is v2c)
SNMPv3 user	String	No	—	USM user name (shown when version is v3)
Authentication protocol	Select (None / SHA-1 / SHA-256)	No	None	Message authentication algorithm (v3 only)
Authentication password	Password	No	—	Shown when an authentication protocol is selected
Privacy protocol	Select (None / AES-128 / AES-192 / AES-256)	No	None	Payload encryption algorithm; requires authentication (v3 only)
Privacy password	Password	No	—	Shown when a privacy protocol is selected
Extra temp warning cap (°C, 0 = off)	Number	No	0	Adds one global warning threshold on top of each sensor's own limits. `0` disables it

Result states

Condition	Severity
Server unreachable over SNMP, or no overall status returned	Critical
Overall or subsystem status reports error / failed	Critical
A sensor temperature reaches its critical threshold	Critical
Overall or subsystem status reports degraded	Warning
A sensor temperature reaches a warning threshold, or the extra warning cap	Warning
Host left blank	Warning
All subsystems report OK	OK

The overall result is the worst severity across every subsystem and sensor.

Collected metrics

The check reports:

Server model and serial number
Overall system status and CPU/mainboard status
Per-subsystem status (mainboard, cooling, power, and more)
Highest temperature and the sensor that reported it, plus warning and critical sensor counts
Fan count and lowest fan speed (RPM)
Power-supply count
Total installed memory (GB)
Per-disk model and capacity from ServerView RAID

Prerequisites

Fujitsu ServerView ServerControl 2 (SC2/SVS) and ServerView RAID agents installed and running on the server's operating system.
SNMP enabled on the operating system and reachable on UDP 161, with a community string (v2c) or USM user and keys (v3).
The check targets the operating system, not the iRMC out-of-band controller.

Notes

The check supports SNMP v2c (community string) and SNMP v3 (user-based security). Select the version the server is configured for.
Privacy (encryption) in v3 requires an authentication protocol to be set as well.
