Erinn Looney-Triggs wrote a nice plug-in for NAGIOS to check the warranty status of your Dell boxes with Dell. However, some of the systems I support are running a seriously old version of Dell OMSA. I sent him a quick patch back in May to handle old OMSA versions:
[root@x plugins]# diff -p check_dell_warranty
check_dell_warranty_test
*** check_dell_warranty Thu Apr 15 14:27:43 2010
--- check_dell_warranty_test Thu May 6 11:45:16 2010
*************** def extract_serial_number_snmp( hostname

#Get enclosure type.

# 2: DellTM PowerVaultTM 200S (PowerVault 201S)
This morning it looks like Dell has a few back-end servers that are serving up an older version of the warranty status table. I put together a quick patch to handle either warranty status table returned by Dell:
[root@x plugins]# diff -p check_dell_warranty- check_dell_warranty*** check_dell_warranty- Thu May 6 11:47:42 2010 --- check_dell_warranty Sat Jul 17 13:24:29 2010 *************** def get_warranty(serial_numbers): *** 438,444 **** return result_list ! def parse_exit(result_list, short_output=False): '''This parses the results from the get_warranty() function and outputs the appropriate information.
