Description: Manages dependency node topology relationships and connectivity state for network resources.

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 DEPNODE-MIB?

DEPNODE-MIB is an IBM proprietary MIB (enterprise OID 2) reporting dependent secondary nodes attached to IBM SP (Scalable POWERparallel) switch networks. Its node table, keyed by name, records node number, switch token/ARP settings, switch node number, IP address/netmask, max link-packet size, host offset, config state, system name, node state, switch chip-link, node delay, and admin status. As a status/configuration MIB it lets an administrator confirm a dependent node's switch-network connectivity and state within an IBM SP cluster. It is deployed on IBM SP (Scalable POWERparallel) cluster switch networks. Engineers can download the DEPNODE-MIB file directly to load it into their MIB browser.

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

  • IBM SP (Scalable POWERparallel) cluster switch networks

Monitoring Examples

An administrator checks ibmSPDepNodeState and ibmSPDepSwChipLink to confirm a dependent node's connectivity within an IBM SP switch network.
