Collect and monitor the general performance Metrics of Server using IPMI2.
Protocol: IPMI
Pre-monitoring steps
The target server supports the IPMI2 protocol.
The BMC (Baseboard Management Controller) has been configured with a network interface, allowing access to the IPMI port.
User accounts have been configured, and appropriate permissions have been assigned to the accounts.
These are basic checks you can follow, and for further details on enabling and configuring IPMI over LAN, you can consult the specific user manual of the server manufacturer.
