Description: Monitors CentricStor virtual tape library file system status and storage performance metrics.

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 CentricStorFS-MIB?

This is a vendor-specific MIB from Fujitsu's CentricStor virtual tape library (VTL) storage platform, focused on the file system and storage-cluster layer of the product rather than tape drive emulation itself. It exposes data organized around a product identity branch, a cluster branch, a system-statistics (Sysstat) branch, and an NFS branch, indicating coverage of storage cluster configuration, general system/performance statistics, and NFS-based storage access. Its monitoring value centers on hardware/software status of the storage backend: cluster health and system statistics reflect the operational state of the VTL's underlying storage nodes, while the NFS branch lets an administrator confirm network-attached storage exports backing the virtual tape file system remain reachable and performant. No explicit external MIB dependency is indicated in the available text, though it likely follows standard SNMPv2-SMI enterprise MIB conventions. It is typically deployed in enterprise backup environments where CentricStorFS-MIB SNMP monitoring is used to ensure the storage cluster and its NFS-based file system remain healthy for ongoing backup and restore operations.

IPNetwork Monitor allows you to monitor SNMP objects defined in CentricStorFS-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

  • Fujitsu CentricStor virtual tape library (VTL)

Monitoring Examples

An administrator would poll centricStorFSCluster to check overall storage cluster status and centricStorFSSysstat for system performance statistics such as throughput or utilization on the CentricStor VTL, alongside centricStorFSNFS to verify NFS-based storage connectivity is functioning. A degraded value under centricStorFSCluster combined with rising latency in centricStorFSSysstat would suggest a storage node or NFS export problem that could impact ongoing backup jobs. centricStorFSProduct would typically be checked once to confirm the product/version identity of the monitored VTL.
