What is ciscoScsiFlowRdCapacitys?

This counter tracks how many SCSI 'Read Capacity' commands - used by a host to determine the size of a LUN - have been sent on this flow. An admin would normally expect this count to increment only during initial LUN discovery or after a LUN has been resized, so a flow where this keeps climbing during steady-state operation suggests the host is re-checking LUN size unexpectedly often, which can indicate multipath failover/failback cycling on that path. A count that jumps right after a storage administrator expanded a LUN, and then goes flat, is the expected and benign pattern.

Examples

Walk all instances (SNMPv2c):

snmpwalk -v2c -c public <target> 1.3.6.1.4.1.9.9.447.1.2.1.1.21
snmpwalk -v2c -c public <target> CISCO-SCSI-FLOW-MIB::ciscoScsiFlowRdCapacitys

Get a specific instance (index 1):

snmpget -v2c -c public <target> 1.3.6.1.4.1.9.9.447.1.2.1.1.21.1
snmpget -v2c -c public <target> CISCO-SCSI-FLOW-MIB::ciscoScsiFlowRdCapacitys.1
