What is eqlControllerUpTime?

Elapsed time, in seconds, since this controller was last booted; a sudden drop to a small value flags an unexpected restart worth investigating.

Examples

Walk all instances (SNMPv2c):

snmpwalk -v2c -c public <target> 1.3.6.1.4.1.12740.4.1.1.1.6
snmpwalk -v2c -c public <target> EQLCONTROLLER-MIB::eqlControllerUpTime

Get a specific instance (index 1):

snmpget -v2c -c public <target> 1.3.6.1.4.1.12740.4.1.1.1.6.1
snmpget -v2c -c public <target> EQLCONTROLLER-MIB::eqlControllerUpTime.1

Start monitoring Dell EqualLogic PS-series iSCSI SAN storage array (RAID controller identity/health) with a free 30-day trial of IPNetwork Monitor. Create custom SNMP monitor using the EQLCONTROLLER-MIB::eqlControllerUpTime OID value, configure state conditions and alerts, and monitor any Dell EqualLogic PS-series iSCSI SAN storage array (RAID controller identity/health) from a single console.

How to Use in IPNetwork Monitor

Select a Dell EqualLogic PS-series iSCSI SAN storage array (RAID controller identity/health) 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 eqlControllerUpTime 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 specifies time interval since the controller was last booted in seconds. 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 value is unexpectedly low (e.g. under 10 minutes), since that indicates a recent, possibly unplanned, reboot or restart. Click Finish to create the monitor; you can adjust any parameter later.
