a2PollDevices
Module: ADAPTECSCSI-MIB
OID (symbolic): ADAPTECSCSI-MIB::a2PollDevices
OID (numeric): 1.3.6.1.4.1.795.2.6.1.2.1.1
Node type: OBJECT-TYPE
Type: DmiInteger
Access: read-write
Description: Writing a non-zero value to this variable causes an immediate one time poll of all currently known devices. This variable will always return the value zero when it is read.
What is a2PollDevices?
This OID acts as a trigger that forces the SCSI adapter to check all currently connected devices for their current status right now instead of waiting for the next scheduled scan. A network engineer would use this after physically connecting a new drive or if a device status changes to get an immediate update. For example, writing "1" causes an instant device refresh, and reading it afterward always returns "0."
