Python module for ganglia 3.1+

This module allows you to collect system statistics from IPMI e.g.

ipmi_cpu2_temp = 42.0
ipmi_vdimm_ef = 1.52
ipmi_vdimm_gh = 1.52
ipmi_vbat = 3.216
ipmi_12v = 11.978
ipmi_vdimm_ab = 1.504
ipmi_fana = 2850.0
ipmi_5v = 5.056
ipmi_3.3v = 3.36
ipmi_vtt = 1.04
ipmi_1.5_v = 1.488
ipmi_cpu1_temp = 41.0
ipmi_cpu1_vcore = 1.008
ipmi_5vsb = 5.056
ipmi_cpu2_vcore = 1.104
ipmi_pch_temp = 43.0
ipmi_1.1_v = 1.088
ipmi_peripheral_temp = 35.0
ipmi_system_temp = 28.0
ipmi_vdimm_cd = 1.52
ipmi_3.3vsb = 3.36
ipmi_fan1 = 2775.0
ipmi_fan3 = 4275.0
ipmi_fan2 = 2850.0
ipmi_fan5 = 3750.0

It requires installation of the timeout binary e.g.

apt-get install timeout

Copy ipmi.py from python_modules to your python modules directory e.g.

/usr/lib64/ganglia/python_modules

and ipmi.pyconf to

/etc/ganglia/conf.d/

In ipmi.pyconf adjust IPMI interface IP, username and password.

Alternatively, if you wish to query the local IPMI interface, leave the IPMI IP uncommented. If you're gmond process runs as a non-root user, you will probably need to configure the 'sudo' directive and modify your sudo configuration to allow the gmond process to run ipmitool.

Restart Gmond and you are done.
