HPE BladeSystems, and more - Automated alarm and reporting functions
PRTG monitors your HP devices
PRTG gathers data from your HP printer, HPE BladeSystem,
and HPE ProLiant server
Manufacturers like Hewlett Packard Enterprises (HPE) offer a wide selection of IT products – including printers, computers, switches, and servers. As with all hardware, system administrators must also be ready to tackle the faulty hard drives, server problems, printer errors, and other issues of HP systems.
Centralized HP monitoring lets you spot problems before they arise, and is quick to send out alarms.
PRTG is your all-in-one network monitoring solution. It monitors all your SNMP-compatible HP devices, which means you no longer have to use a different monitoring tool for each piece of hardware. All monitoring information is neatly displayed on your dashboard or presented in easy-to-read reports.
Monitoring HP computers:
PRTG sounds the alarm if you’re running low on hard disk space or memory, and logs all data from past time periods. As a result, data losses are avoided, and hard disks and other hardware can be replaced or upgraded quickly.
Monitoring HPE ProLiant servers:
By monitoring CPU and main memory loads, data traffic on the network interface, and the overall system status, PRTG can quickly notify you if a server becomes overloaded. As a result, you can redistribute the load, eliminate potential sources of errors, and prevent performance snags and server downtime.
Monitoring HPE BladeSystems:
PRTG displays the system health of your HPE BladeSystem enclosures, and notifies you as soon as something goes awry. PRTG also makes it easy to check the status of an HPE blade, including its power supply.
Monitoring printers, routers, and other
HP hardware:
PRTG also checks network printers and other SNMP-compatible hardware for errors (e.g. HP ProCurve switches). Prompt notifications let you get to work before the first support ticket has a chance to arrive.
With PRTG, you'll maintain full control over all your HP devices.
How HP monitoring with PRTG works
HP hardware monitoring
PRTG uses both pre-configured and customizable sensors to monitor HP hardware. These sensors collect all the necessary information, and display the queried data in PRTG. PRTG promptly warns you if the return values might be indicative of a glitch, allowing you to quickly get down to troubleshooting your hardware or network.
Ping tests
Ping tests are used to check the availability of servers and work computers. If a Ping test fails, the device is either shut off or down, or there is a problem with the network connection – the error might lie with a cable that is unplugged or damaged.
i Ping is a command-line utility, available on virtually any operating system with network connectivity, that acts as a test to see if a networked device is reachable. The ping command sends a request over the network to a specific device. A successful ping results in a response from the computer that was pinged back to the originating computer.

Save resources with SNMP
PRTG monitors all SNMP-compatible HP devices. SNMP (Simple Network Monitoring Protocol) is the easiest method for querying sensor data from the network, and also the protocol that uses the fewest amount of resources. SNMP is known for putting very little strain on the CPU and network loads. If your HP hardware is SNMP-compatible, then you can use PRTG to collect a great deal of valuable data from it.
HPE ProLiant servers
We’ve configured several sensors especially for HPE ProLiant servers. These sensors will allow you to monitor your HP server’s logical disk, memory controller, network interface, physical disk, and system health – out of the box and without complicated setup procedures! PRTG also comes with built-in sensors for your HPE BladeSystem: these sensors will show you the status of the blade and the system health of the blade enclosure. You can even monitor your HP LaserJet printer with its own specially-designed sensor: quickly check toner and paper levels, and be informed immediately in the event of a paper jam!
iWhat is a sensor?
In PRTG, “sensors” are the basic monitoring elements. One sensor usually monitors one measured value in your network, e.g. the traffic of a switch port, the CPU load of a server, the free space of a disk drive. On average you need about 5-10 sensors per device or one sensor per switch port.

Data collected
by PRTG
HP laptops and desktop computers
PRTG sensors let you monitor CPU and memory usage, bandwidth consumption, and the system information of your HP laptops and desktop computers.
Printer availability
You’ll get information on the availability of your HP printer, its toner level, and the number of pages it has printed, and be notified immediately if the printer is jammed with paper.
System health
Monitor the system health and hard drives of your HPE ProLiant server: temperature, fan status, power supply status, and power consumption, as well as the statuses of the hard drive controller, logical and physical disks, and memory controller. You’ll also be able to keep a constant eye on data throughput on the ProLiant network interface.
Network traffic
SNMP traffic sensors provide a clear idea of network traffic on HP routers and switches (such as an HP ProCurve switch).
iSNMP stands for Simple Network Monitoring Protocol. Its usefulness in network administration comes from the fact that it allows information to be collected about network-connected devices in a standardized way across a large variety of hardware and software types. SNMP is a protocol for management information transfer in networks, for use in LANs especially, depending on the chosen version.

Blade systems
Monitor the status of blades and the health data of BladeSystems enclosures.
SNMP-compatible hardware
Thanks to its generic and customizable SNMP sensors, PRTG can monitor any type of SNMP-compatible HP hardware.
Custom sensors
In addition to pre-configured sensors, PRTG also offers user-defined sensors which allow you to monitor the data on an end device using your own scripts, which are run via the PRTG API.
