Is anyone monitoring Synology Rackstation HW health?
I have multiple units I need to monitor. I added the nodes but see no HW.
Any help would be appreciated.

Hi Sky2830,
You should start off by assessing what, if anything of value, can be monitored on those appliances. To do that, use a tool like snmpwalk to generate output data which will help you understand what is exposed and available to be monitored. You may get lucky and find that the appliances have counters or tables that can be polled to get hardware health. If that is the case, use the Universal Device Poller tool on your Orion server to build a custom poller that will poll the appliances for the information.
Hello Deltona, tnaks for the reply.
I ran the snmp walk - attached. How does one make sense of it?
Comparing the output with the Synology MIBs found here, it looks like you can monitor the following hardware health related objects:
cpuFanStatus
diskStatus
diskTemperature
powerStatus
systemFanStatus
temperature
I've made a UnDP that includes the above and other objects that might be of interest. Get it here. Import it to your Universal Device Poller application and assign the imported pollers to your Synology node. Once that is done, create some custom poller resources on your Synology Node details view in Orion in order to display the output.
