Hello,
In order to Monitor the state of the RAID Controller Card, the state of a disk in an array or the global status of the array environment, simply use the following steps:
1. Click the "Devices" tab.
2. Select the Dell Device you wish to monitor.
3. Click "Add -> Add New Monitor".
4. On the left-hand side, click "SNMP".
5. On the right-hand side, click "Custom SNMP (Wizard)".
6. Ensure that the Address and SNMP Community are correct and replace the OID with one of the following:
Disk State: 1.3.6.1.4.1.674.10893.1.1.130.4.1.4
Expected value: Online(3)
ArrayDiskState: 1.3.6.1.4.1.674.10893.1.20.130.4.1.4
Expected Value: Online(3)
Controller State: 1.3.6.1.4.1.674.10893.1.1.130.1.1.5
Expected value: Ready(1)
Array Manager Global Status: 1.3.6.1.4.1.674.10893.1.1.2
Expected value: Normal(3)
7. Click the "Select" button next to the resource you wish to Monitor.
8. Set the criteria accordingly. See "Expected value" above.
9. Click "Create"
Note: To monitor RAID on a DELL system, the following requirements must be met:
- Ensure that Dell OpenManage is installed on the target server(s) with the storage management component installed.
- SNMP Agent must be restarted (if recently installed)
For Compaq/HP Servers use one of the following OIDs:
1.3.6.1.4.1.232.6.1.3.0 - system status
1.3.6.1.4.1.232.3.2.2.1.10.6 - raid status
1.3.6.1.4.1.232.3.2.2.2.1.5 - RAID accelerator status
1.3.6.1.4.1.232.3.2.5.1.1.37 - drive condition
Hope this helps.
