● Fiber channel
● IB adapter ports
Most useful transceiver information are Serial number and Part number from transceiver EPROM. These would allow to verify the
remotely installed transceivers, when troubleshooting connectivity issues. For each SFP Transceiver device, you can view the following
information for the ports:
● Vendor Name
● Part Number
● Revision
● Serial Number
● Device Identifier
● Interface Type
Monitoring SFP Transceiver devices using web interface
To view the SFP Transceiver device information using Web interface, go to System > Overview > Network Devices and click on
particular device. For more information about the displayed properties, see iDRAC Online Help.
The page name also displays the slot number where the transceiver device is available under Port statistics.
Monitoring data for SFP devices is only available for active SFPs. Following are the information displayed:
● TX Output Power
● TX Bias Current
● RX Input Power
● Vcc Voltage
● Temperature
Monitoring SFP Transceiver devices using RACADM
To view the SFP Transceiver device information using RACADM, use the networktransceiverstatistics command.
For more information, see the Guide de la CLI RACADM de l’iDRAC disponible à l’adresse https://www.dell.com/idracmanuals.
Telemetry Streaming
Telemetry enables users to collect and stream real-time device metrics, events, and data logs from a PowerEdge server to a subscribed
external client or server application. Using Telemetry, you can set the type and frequency of reports that needs to be generated.
NOTE: The feature is supported on all the platforms and it requires iDRAC Datacenter license.
Telemetry is one-to-many solution for collecting and streaming the live system data from one or more PowerEdge servers (iDRAC) to a
centralized 'Remote Server Monitoring, Analysis, and Alerting service'. The feature also supports on-demand data collection of the data.
The telemetry data includes metrics/inventory and logs/events. The data can be streamed (pushed out) or collected (pulled) from iDRAC
to or by remote consumers like Redfish client and Remote Syslog Server. The telemetry data is also provided to the iDRAC SupportAssist
data collector on demand. The data collection and report is based on predefined Redfish telemetry metrics, trigger, and report definitions.
The telemetry streaming settings can be configured using iDRAC web interface, RACADM, Redfish, and Server Configuration Profile
(SCP).
To configure Telemetry, enable or select the required device reports or logs that define the behavior and frequency of data streaming. Go
to Configuration > System Settings page to configure Telemetry. Data streaming is automatic until the Telemetry is disabled.
Following table describes the metric reports that can be generated using telemetry:
