Dell's Nagios Plugin

I use Nagios only with NRPE plug-ins without any problem on all my  
DELL Powerage servers.
For DELL servers I use these two plug-ins in combination with OMSA on  
Debian GNU/LINUX:

check_dell_omreport.pl (megaraid ctrl monitoring)
check_dell_hw.pl (global hardware monitoring)

You can find more information at:
