Description: Dell EqualLogic internal storage array MIB providing management objects for internal system components and diagnostics.
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 EQLINTERNAL-MIB?
This is a Dell EqualLogic (PS Series iSCSI SAN) proprietary MIB providing internal management objects used for monitoring and licensing tracking within an EqualLogic storage group. It exposes internal monitoring status data through a monitor table and a companion monitor status table, including a reminder object likely tied to licensing or maintenance notifications. Its monitoring value centers on internal array health/status tracking used to support diagnostics and group-level licensing enforcement rather than exposing detailed disk or RAID telemetry directly. No explicit dependency on another standard MIB is stated; it is a self-contained Dell proprietary internal MIB, typically used alongside Dell's other EqualLogic MIBs (such as member and volume MIBs) for a complete storage array picture. It is deployed in Dell EqualLogic PS Series iSCSI SAN environments as part of the group's internal management and licensing infrastructure. Engineers can download the EQLINTERNAL-MIB file directly to load it into their MIB browser.
IPNetwork Monitor allows you to monitor SNMP objects defined in EQLINTERNAL-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
An administrator would poll eqlMonitorTable / eqlMonitorEntry alongside eqlMonitorStatusTable / eqlMonitorStatusEntry to check internal monitoring health indicators for the EqualLogic group, and the eqlMonitorStatusReminder object could surface a licensing or maintenance reminder that needs action, such as an expiring support license on the array.
What Can Be Monitored
- internal monitor status
- monitor status reminder/licensing notice
