schedFailures

Module: DISMAN-SCHEDULE-MIB

OID (symbolic): DISMAN-SCHEDULE-MIB::schedFailures

OID (numeric): 1.3.6.1.2.1.63.1.2.1.16

Node type: OBJECT-TYPE

Type: Counter32

Access: read-only

Description: This variable counts the number of failures while invoking the scheduled action. This counter at most increments once for a triggered action.

What is schedFailures?

This object counts how many times this schedule's action invocation has failed since the row was created. It increments at most once per triggered attempt, so a rising count signals recurring problems executing the configured set operation, worth cross-checking against schedLastFailure. For example, a schedFailures value that climbs every night indicates the scheduled set operation is consistently being rejected, perhaps due to an access-control or value-range error.

Examples

Walk all instances (SNMPv2c):

snmpwalk -v2c -c public <target> 1.3.6.1.2.1.63.1.2.1.16
snmpwalk -v2c -c public <target> DISMAN-SCHEDULE-MIB::schedFailures

Get a specific instance (index 1):

snmpget -v2c -c public <target> 1.3.6.1.2.1.63.1.2.1.16.1
snmpget -v2c -c public <target> DISMAN-SCHEDULE-MIB::schedFailures.1

Start monitoring SNMP agent supporting scheduled operations (vendor-neutral, DISMAN) with a free 30-day trial of IPNetwork Monitor. Create custom SNMP monitor using the DISMAN-SCHEDULE-MIB::schedFailures OID value, configure state conditions and alerts, and monitor any SNMP agent supporting scheduled operations (vendor-neutral, DISMAN) from a single console.

How to Use in IPNetwork Monitor

Select an SNMP agent supporting scheduled operation (vendor-neutral, DISMAN) as the target host to create a monitor — the SNMP service should be up and running on it. Click New Monitor, then check SNMP Custom on the Favorites tab, click Next, and confirm the host. On the next page, click Select... to open the built-in SNMP MIB Browser and type schedFailures into the Find box to locate it in the OID tree, selecting the specific row/instance you want to monitor since this is a table column, then select it and click OK. This variable counts the number of failures while invoking the scheduled action. On the monitor's Main parameters page you can set the target's SNMP port (default 161), credentials, polling interval, and other settings — see the SNMP Monitor help for details. On the State conditions and Alerting tabs, configure when the monitor should change state and trigger an alert; since this is a Counter32-type OID, Value bounds is the most useful condition here — trigger an alert if the counter increases between polls, since a rising count of errors, failures, or discards often points to a real underlying problem. Click Finish to create the monitor; you can adjust any parameter later.
