Scan OMSA's omreport tool's output for issues
Project description
Overview
The Dell OMSA (OpenManage Server Administrator) command-line tools are a suite of stateless tools for querying or reconfiguring your Dell server hardware, including PERC controllers, virtual disks, and physical disks. This tool is able to take “omreport vdisk” and “omreport pdisk” output, check for the existence of problems (non-OK statuses on your physical disks or virtual disks), and take action if it finds anything.
It can send one or more emails or call one or more commands. You can also choose to forward information about the problematic device to one or more commands.
Feel free to submit pull-requests with any missing features that might increase usefulness.
Install
Use PyPI:
$ pip install omsa-alert
Example
If there’s an error:
$ omreport storage pdisk controller=1 -fmt ssv | oa_check pdisk -e root@localhost -e dustin@localhost Notifying: ['root@localhost', 'dustin@localhost']
An example of such an email:

NOTE: This is a contrived example. The disk information is based on a perfectly healthy disk. Real failures will look different.
See the command-line help for full documentation on parameters.
Features
May send messages to many email recipients.
May call many separate commands and optionally pass the information for the problematic devices via STDIN.
Turn on verbosity to print the problem information to the screen (useful with Crontab).
Will fail with a return-code of (5) when it encounters a problem (by default) unless you tell it not to.
Tests
There is a complete testing suite:
$ ./test.sh
