check switch FC dell brocade 6000/storage dell 380 unity

Post by nmarbue79 »

Hi, I have to monitor a DELL borcade model 6000 Fabric OS fiber channel switch: v8.2.1d nothing can be done by pooling only by traps and it is quite complicated to configure those traps, I cannot find MIBs for those traps either? Where could I find those MIBs or if there is any script with SSH access to implement basic monitoring compatible with Fabric OS: v8.2.1d?

This switch serves a dell 380 unity storage array, but nothing can be obtained by pooling either, only by traps and I don't see the MIBs anywhere, is there any script that uses the API, for web-access administration of the array storage to see the status of the disk array, like for example do you have the script => check_vmware_api.pl for vmware and ESXI?

Thank you so much

Hello @nmarbue79

Thanks for reaching out, I also took a look through the interweb and only came up with the following mib. Not a direct model number match, suggest downloading. Unzip and place into the mib path for your distro and run a 'snmpwalk' on that device. Verify the the getnext list on the snmpwalk.

Or Download from:

https://dl.dell.com/FOLDER04848693M/1/MIB2014.01.29.zip

Unfortunately, ssh checks require plugins as well.

Hopefully, another forum user will have experience that they can share,

the problem that the devices only send traps, there is no active snmp configuration to do snmpwalk from my snmp server.
I already have that file that tells me, but I don't see that the test traps IOD matches as the device sends me. test traps => Thu Sep 23 12:59:08 2021: Unknown trap (.1.3.6.1.4.1.1139.103.1.18.2.6)

Hello @nmarbue79

That is going to be difficult to find a workaround if we can't configure an snmp on device so we can snmpwalk it. Checked the plugin exchange and I don't see anything that could be implemented via ssh.

Let's find out if someone else on this forum has other suggestions.

Thanks,
Perry

Thank you very much, but you can close the thread so as not to have it open for so long in case I have to open another thread, I will ask my colleagues on the monitoring team if they can help me
