[racktables-users] Re: SNMP Support for HP/Compaq servers

Hi Luis,

you could try it with
snmpget -v 1 -c <community_string> <ip> 1.3.6.1.4.1.232.2.2.2.1.0
or try to get on the Insight Homepage
https://<ip>:2381

I'm not quite sure but shouldn't the management homepage of the bladecenter
show the serialnumbers as well?
We don't have any HP blades around so I can't test this configuration.
