SNMP Monitoring of BES 5.0.3

calfrac_jdp

We have BES 5.0.3 in a HA setup (active/passive) and are having trouble identifing the OIDs we need to monitor our services via SNMP

I have read all of the RIM documents via forums, knowledge base and searched the greater net for information (including this site). I have also compiled the MIBs (both current and compat versions)

Here is what I know - RIM changed the OIDs in the current version as they are in the sub 6.7 tree, the compat version uses the old sub 5 tree for OIDs but without the .20 which as added a couple of minor version ago.

Anyway I have a couple of simple questions that I need answered in order to monitor our BES boxes via SNMP.

I want to monitor the following:

BES Connection to Exchange

Seconds that BES has failed connection to Exchange since last reboot

Message Delivery Pending

We have also found some of the OIDs via browsing the MIB but most of these return tables and there is no documented anywhere as to the meaning of the values returned in these tables.

What MIB should we use? Current or Compat?

What are the OIDs should get us the information we need for the above items?

Any help in this matter is greatly appreciated

 

Thanks,

Just running through the BES MIB I've found some items that might be what you're looking for.

BES Connection to Exchange

besSRPConnectState 1.3.6.1.4.1.3530.5.9.1
besSysHealthSrpConnectedState 1.3.6.1.4.1.3530.5.25.1.10

Message Delivery Pending

besSysHealthV1MsgsPending 1.3.6.1.4.1.3530.5.25.1.202

Seconds that BES has failed connection to Exchange since last reboot

besSysHealthSrpTotalSecNotConnected 1.3.6.1.4.1.3530.5.25.1.14

Is there any reason why you're unable to use the BES WMI template included with APM?
