Uh, there was an existing compaq-server template ...

Can you start with the steps you followed to install devmon? Did you install 
the templates?

Well, on a ProLiant, as long as you manually set the model type in bb-hosts, 
you should get fans,raid,log,power,temp tests. You will probably want a 
feature I still need to implement: multiple templates for a host (and use e.g. 
linux-netsnmp). For now, you may want to make your own template (after you 
have the default compaq-server one working), which symlinks all the relevant 
tests from compaq-server and linux-netsnmp.

Time to start looking at that feature (which I also need ...).
