Component Checks & agents
Title Monitor Redfish compatible management boards / BMCs via optional MKP
Date Mar 6, 2024
Checkmk Edition Checkmk Raw (CRE)
Checkmk Version 2.3.0b3 2.4.0b1
Level Trivial Change
Class New Feature
Compatibility Compatible - no manual interaction needed

You can now monitor Redfish compatible management boards / BMCs with Checkmk. To do so, please enable the natively shipped MKP redfish in Setup --> Extension packages (in commercial editions of Checkmk) or via the command line tool mkp (in Checkmk Raw). This will enable a new datasource program under Setup --> Other integrations --> Redfish Compatible Management Controller. This is an experimental integration created by the Checkmk community (Andreas Döhler from Bechtle), which has already been tested in many environments. However, due to the diverse nature of server hardware, we plan to integrate it entirely for Checkmk 2.4.0, once we have gathered further feedback.
