Then divide the running time by 5 to get the time multiple. In this example: 7/5=2

Note that your data gathering script may obtain, parse, and submit more than one metric to HP
Insight CMU. A typical example of this is gathering multiple temperature readings from a single
source, such as through IPMI or from the Onboard Administrator of an HP Blade enclosure. In this
case, you only need to configure the script to run with one metric in the
ActionAndAlertsFile.txt

file. The other metrics gathered by this script can be configured

in the ActionAndAlertsFile.txt file without any command after the EXTENDED keyword.

Several preconfigured scripts in /opt/cmu/contrib/ can gather and submit metrics to HP Insight
CMU with the extended monitoring support. These scripts come with README files that document
how they work and how they can be configured in HP Insight CMU. Copy and/or modify these
scripts freely to operate correctly on your HP Insight CMU cluster.

The cmu_IPMI_monitoring script gathers IPMI metrics by querying the Management Card
for this information.

The cmu_OA_monitoring script gathers power and temperature readings from the Onboard
Administrators of HP Blade enclosures.

The cmu_get_ganglia_metrics script gathers metrics from the ganglia monitoring
daemons.

6.5.9.1 Configuring iLO4 AMS extended metric support

HP Insight CMU supports gathering server metrics from iLO4 (or newer) via the iLO Agentless
Monitoring Support (AMS) and submitting them to HP Insight CMU via the EXTENDED monitoring
support. To enable this support, run the /opt/cmu/bin/cmu_config_ams –c command:

Figure 44 cmu_config_ams command

The cmu_config_ams command configures an AMS submenu in the HP Insight CMU GUI remote
management menu. Verify this by checking the /opt/cmu/etc/cmu_custom_menu file (see
above), or by checking the HP Insight CMU GUI:
