Community Fork?

Opened this issue · 19 comments

roock commented

I see a lot of people have currently forked this repository working independently on new feature and keeping it maintained. What do you guy think of joining forces together and drive this as a community effort?

Tagging everyone how contributed on a fork within the last year:

@cbw @mhollstein @srkaviani @longpaul @n27051538 @baonq-me @root-ali @wardellc

Please let me know what you think and/or willing to do this as a community.

srkaviani commented

Very good.
I agree to join this community.

baonq-me commented

What do you suggest?

roock commented

I have created the hpilo-exporter github organization and sent you invites. I would suggest that we continue the development of this project there and start further discussions there.

I'm open to participating. Thanks @roock for driving this!

Can you be more specific, like which feature or problem should be addressed?

longpaul commented

Sadly the exporter is not actively maintained. That's why I'm also willing to help

roock commented

Can you be more specific, like which feature or problem should be addressed?

The problem I would like to solve is that currently there are 10+ forks of the original repository, all with different features and/or features which have been implemented multiple times independently. I think everyone would benefit if we have one repository which contains all features and is kept uptodate.

I can understand that you have already spend a lot of time to merge some of the changes together, but your repository is lacking some important things like python3 support or automated building of docker image.

Hello, dears!

I have added this to exporter a few years ago:

  • support for Python 3.6.
  • ilo_user, ilo_password, ilo_port may be preset via environment.
  • storage health information from iLO (cache, controller, logical drives, physical drives).
  • temperature values information from iLO.
  • per-fan and per-power-supply statuses.
  • OA info for Blade servers
  • Server ON status.
  • Alert rules for Prom
  • Also I have Grafana Dashboard about, but it is not published to github.

Since this modification it works well on all HPE servers that I have to monitor.
I am not using docker still, so DockerFile is without any mod and not tested.

Here is my dashboard (of course, it works with my fork https://github.com/baonq-me/hpilo-exporter) https://gist.github.com/baonq-me/75f3041fea0e01f74d6a170c53c95a5e

Yeah, your Grafana Dashboard looks great, I'm already using it 😄 As you just stated, it works with YOUR fork, I think everyone would benefit from one shared repository where all the improvements are collected and kept uptodate. And which is easy to find and you don't have to look in 5 different forks to get all the features.

Also your Grafana Dashboard contains some hardcoded references (e.g. to datasources and hostnames).

Yeah, you did a great job with the improvements, I would really like to see them in a shared repository. (Unfortunately it's a bit hard to cherry-pick your changes, since you make more or less complete rewrite 😄

Your Grafana Dashboard is very good. but it contains some hardcoded references. for fix this issue please export dashboard with option "Export for sharing externally".
and I suggest to share this dashboard and other future dashboard of this exporter to grafana.com (same as : https://grafana.com/orgs/soroush7339)

Thanks for your idea. I'll bring the dashboard to grafana.com.

I've started creating a repository with all the combined changes of the different forks including a matching Grafana Dashboard and a working Dockerfile with Python3.

Hi Guys,

How can I start this hpilo-exporter to obtain multiple hosts? I also want this service shall be started up after once the server reboot.
I was done with export the environment like ILO_HOST=ip target, ILO_PORT=443, ILO_USER=username, ILO_PASSWORD=userpassword then execute hpilo-exporter --address=ip exporter --port=9416 --endpoint="/metrics". But it is only server a single target host, I want can get multiple target host, how can we do it?

Thanks in advanced

jhonyh commented

the dashboard is now does not show the metric, why? how long it will scrap back?
