Description: Manages FC and iSCSI storage initiator groups, path HA, and protocol preferences for Cisco UCS service profiles connecting to SAN targets

Start monitoring vendor-neutral, standards-based MIB, any SNMPv3-capable network device (SNMP engine identity/boot/clock status) with a free 30-day trial of IPNetwork Monitor. Import MIBs, browse SNMP OIDs, create custom SNMP monitors, configure alerts, and monitor any SNMP-enabled network device from a single console.

What Is CISCO-UNIFIED-COMPUTING-INITIATOR-MIB?

This Cisco MIB models the storage-initiator layer of the Cisco Unified Computing System (UCS), representing Fibre Channel and iSCSI initiator endpoints used by UCS service profiles to connect blade/rack servers to SAN storage targets. It exposes configuration-and-state data for FC initiator endpoints (WWPN identity, preference, protocol) and initiator groups, reflecting how storage paths are provisioned and which paths are preferred versus standby for multipath/HA access. Its monitoring value centers on software/configuration status of storage connectivity: verifying an initiator endpoint's assigned WWPN and path preference, confirming initiator group membership, and detecting misconfigured or inactive paths that would compromise SAN redundancy. As part of the broader CISCO-UNIFIED-COMPUTING-MIB family, it depends heavily on the shared UCS management information model (managed object DN/RN naming conventions) used across all UCS MIBs. It's deployed in Cisco UCS Manager-managed data center environments for SAN connectivity and multipathing health checks. Engineers can download the CISCO-UNIFIED-COMPUTING-INITIATOR-MIB file directly to load it into their MIB browser.

IPNetwork Monitor allows you to monitor SNMP objects defined in CISCO-UNIFIED-COMPUTING-INITIATOR-MIB. Use the built-in SNMP Monitoring Browser to explore available variables, view their current values and descriptions, and select the objects you want to monitor. You can then create SNMP monitors, configure thresholds, and receive alerts when monitored values change.

Supported Devices

Cisco UCS blade/rack server (via UCS Manager)

Monitoring Examples

An admin walking cucsInitiatorFcInitiatorEpTable can inspect cucsInitiatorFcInitiatorEpWwpn and cucsInitiatorFcInitiatorEpPref for each cucsInitiatorFcInitiatorEpId to confirm a service profile's primary FC path is set correctly relative to its backup. cucsInitiatorFcInitiatorEpProt shows whether the initiator is using FC or FCoE, useful when auditing a mixed-fabric UCS domain. Checking cucsInitiatorGroupEpTable alongside the FC initiator entries reveals whether an initiator is correctly grouped for multipath failover, and a missing or misassigned cucsInitiatorFcInitiatorEpDn would indicate a broken service-profile-to-SAN mapping.

What Can Be Monitored

FC initiator WWPN
initiator path preference
initiator protocol (FC/FCoE)
initiator group membership
initiator endpoint distinguished name
