cHcAlarmValueFailedAttempts

Module: CISCO-HC-ALARM-MIB

OID (symbolic): CISCO-HC-ALARM-MIB::cHcAlarmValueFailedAttempts

OID (numeric): 1.3.6.1.4.1.9.10.93.1.1.1.1.16

Node type: OBJECT-TYPE

Type: Counter32

Access: read-only

Description: The number of times the associated cHcAlarmVariable instance was polled on behalf of this cHcAlarmEntry, (while in the active state) and the value was not available. This counter may experience a discontinuity if the agent restarts, indicated by the value of sysUpTime.

What is cHcAlarmValueFailedAttempts?

Counts how many times the monitored variable for this alarm entry could not be polled successfully while the alarm was active, useful for detecting sampling problems; may reset on agent restart.

Examples

Walk all instances (SNMPv2c):

snmpwalk -v2c -c public <target> 1.3.6.1.4.1.9.10.93.1.1.1.1.16
snmpwalk -v2c -c public <target> CISCO-HC-ALARM-MIB::cHcAlarmValueFailedAttempts

Get a specific instance (index 1):

snmpget -v2c -c public <target> 1.3.6.1.4.1.9.10.93.1.1.1.1.16.1
snmpget -v2c -c public <target> CISCO-HC-ALARM-MIB::cHcAlarmValueFailedAttempts.1

How to Use in IPNetwork Monitor

Select a Cisco platform supporting High Capacity RMON alarm as the target host to create a monitor — the SNMP service should be up and running on it. Click New Monitor, then check SNMP Custom on the Favorites tab, click Next, and confirm the host. On the next page, click Select... to open the built-in SNMP MIB Browser and type cHcAlarmValueFailedAttempts into the Find box to locate it in the OID tree, selecting the specific row/instance you want to monitor since this is a table column, then select it and click OK. The number of times the associated cHcAlarmVariable instance was polled on behalf of this cHcAlarmEntry, (while in the active state) and the value was not available. On the monitor's Main parameters page you can set the target's SNMP port (default 161), credentials, polling interval, and other settings — see the SNMP Monitor help for details. On the State conditions and Alerting tabs, configure when the monitor should change state and trigger an alert; since this is a Counter32-type OID, Value bounds is the most useful condition here — trigger an alert if the counter increases sharply between polls relative to its normal baseline, since an unexpected spike often reflects a real change in traffic or activity. Click Finish to create the monitor; you can adjust any parameter later.
