How can i add DRAC to Cacti.
Hello guys,
I m new to DRAC.
I need your help. I have cacti server for getting TRAPs using SNMP.
I want to add DRAC server to Cacti server so that i can get any TRAP alerts generated by DRAC server and check for H/W failure,Fan speed etc.
But to perform all this task i need to add DRAC host plugin. I m not able to find out plugin for iDRAC 7.
Will you please help me to solve my problem.

You can't configure Cacti for the MIBs. However, you can open the MIB files and transfer the OID values over to Cacti itself. The MIB's can be found here - www.dell.com/.../poweredge-r610
Let me know how it goes.

Thanks Chris,
you are right we can get MIB's, i used some MIB browser to check for DRAC MIB's.
But i want is that in cacti if we want to monitor any host using SNMP for this we need to add that host to the cacti and during the time of adding we have to select particular host plugin for that host. if it is windows host we need to select windows host plugin, if it is Linux machine then we have so select another host plugin.
In my case i add the server information to the cacti but now i want to add DRAC interface also. I got some DRAC host plugin's but that plugin's are for older DRAC.
I want plugin so that my cacti server direct know the DRAC configuration by adding DRAC host plugin and i will connect to the DRAC server and according to that i can add graphs for the DRAC host.
