CYCLONE-MIB

Description: Manages Cyclone networking equipment configuration and operational status objects.

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.

CYCLONE-MIB is a MIB from Adaptec/Cyclone (storage management division) for monitoring SCSI-based storage adapters and disk array controllers, covering host adapter identification, SCSI bus/channel/target/LUN addressing, and array configuration. It exposes objects identifying the host adapter vendor, product, and controller model, its bus/channel topology, per-array naming, and a miscompare counter used in array verification/consistency checks. Its monitoring role centers on storage subsystem health: cycMisCompares is a direct data-integrity indicator from RAID verify mismatches, while the adapter/controller identification objects help confirm correct hardware and let an NMS map SCSI addressing to a specific array for fault isolation. It is a vendor-private MIB under the Adaptec storage-management OID branch, generally used standalone without dependency on standard storage MIBs. It is deployed on servers or storage systems using Adaptec/Cyclone SCSI host bus adapters and array controllers, monitored for RAID/array integrity and adapter health. Engineers can download the CYCLONE-MIB file directly to load it into their MIB browser.

A storage administrator would poll cycMisCompares for a given cycArrayName to detect data-integrity mismatches surfaced during a RAID consistency check, which can indicate a failing disk. cycControllerModel and cycHostAdapterID identify exactly which physical adapter is reporting the fault, while cycBusNumber, cycChannelNumber, cycScsiTargetID, and cycLun pinpoint the specific SCSI device/LUN involved. cycVendor and cycProduct confirm the adapter's make/model for support and compatibility purposes.
