SNMP OID's for DFM Events

=========================Original Post=========================

Hi all,

I want to send SNMP based alerts to a third party software tool. My customer is telling me that all they need are the OID's of the events that I would like to monitor.

I found the DFM.MIB file and have been hunting around. But I can't find where the OID's are referenced.

Where can I find the SMNP OID's for DFM specific events?

I would like to monitor the critical and emergency events coming out of DFM.

Specifically...

Event	Type	Class
global-status:nonrecoverable	Emergency	status.global
script:emergency-event	Emergency	script-event
cfo-this-filer:dead	Critical	cf.state
cluster-unreachable	Critical	ping.status
global-status:critical	Critical	status.global
host-down	Critical	ping.status
RPM-unavailable	Critical	rpm.status
script:critical-event	Critical	script-event
temperature-hot	Critical	env.temp

Any help is greatly appreciated. Thanks.

Some additional information. The traps.dat file located in the /etc/mib directory on a filer contains the OIDs that are specific to the storage system. I'm looking for the OID's that are specific to DFM. There is no *.dat file in the directory path for the dfm mib, \NetApp\DataFabric Manager\DFM\misc. Help!

=================Correct Answer from Rick Ehrhart @ NetApp =========================

I couldn't find an SNMP alias file for DFM; but I did a little research.

Here is the DFM trap OID: .1.3.6.1.4.1.789.3.11.1.5.

Looking for your global status - nonrecoverable, I found:

dfmEvtGlobalStatusNonRecoverable TRAP-TYPE

ENTERPRISE netappDataFabricManager

VARIABLES {

dfmSerialNumber, dfmEventSourceSerialNumber,

dfmEventId, dfmEventName, dfmEventSeverity,

dfmEventTimestamp, dfmEventMessage,

dfmEventMessageDetails,

dfmEventSourceId, dfmEventSourceTable,

dfmObjectId, dfmObjectType, dfmObjectFullName,

dfmObjectStatus, dfmEventSourceProductId,

dfmHostFullName, dfmCommentFields,

dfmPhysicalHostId, dfmPhysicalHostFullName

}

DESCRIPTION

"The host being monitored by DataFabric Manager server

has global status value 'NonRecoverable'."

::= 10166

So I believe the trap OID is: 1.3.6.1.4.1.789.3.11.1.5.10166

Rick, thanks so much for your research. This is exactly what I am looking for. Based on your information I can cross reference the dfm.mib, locate the trap type, and append the trap ID to the OID you mentioned above. So using your logic.....

The DFM OID is 1.3.6.1.4.1.789.3.11.1.5.

The trap ID below is 10194

So my OID for this event is 1.3.6.1.4.1.789.3.11.1.5.10194

Awesome, thanks again for your assistance.
