Description: EqualLogic storage array SNMP agent extended error MIB providing detailed diagnostic counters for agent operations.
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 EQLAGENT-MIB?
This is a Dell EqualLogic (originally EqualLogic Inc.) enterprise MIB intended to provide extended, detailed error/diagnostic counters for the SNMP agent running on an EqualLogic storage array, supplementing the array's primary storage-monitoring MIBs. No object names were included in the available source data, so exact counters cannot be enumerated, but by its stated purpose it exposes SNMP agent-level operational error and diagnostic data rather than storage-array business data itself. Its likely monitoring role is confirming the health of the SNMP management/software agent process on the array, detecting internal agent errors that could cause gaps or inaccuracies in other EqualLogic MIB data. It is a standalone Dell/EqualLogic enterprise MIB with no indicated dependency on external standard MIBs. It would be deployed on Dell EqualLogic PS-series iSCSI storage arrays as a low-level diagnostic aid alongside the array's main storage-monitoring MIBs. Engineers can download the EQLAGENT-MIB file directly to load it into their MIB browser.
IPNetwork Monitor allows you to monitor SNMP objects defined in EQLAGENT-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
- Dell EqualLogic PS-series iSCSI storage arrays
Monitoring Examples
No object or table names were available in the source data for this module, so a concrete polling scenario naming specific objects cannot be given without inventing them; based on its stated purpose, it would be used by Dell support tooling to pull internal SNMP-agent error diagnostics when troubleshooting inconsistent or missing SNMP data from an EqualLogic array.
What Can Be Monitored
- SNMP agent internal error counters
- agent diagnostic status indicators
