eqliscsiSsnErrorCount

Module: EQLISCSI-MIB

OID (symbolic): EQLISCSI-MIB::eqliscsiSsnErrorCount

OID (numeric): 1.3.6.1.4.1.12740.11.1.1.1.1

Node type: OBJECT-TYPE

Type: Counter32

Access: read-only

Description: The number of errors encountered since this session was established

What is eqliscsiSsnErrorCount?

This read-only counter tracks the number of errors encountered since a specific iSCSI session was established on this Dell EqualLogic array. Admins monitor it to gauge the reliability of an individual iSCSI connection, since a rising error count on one session while others stay clean points to a link- or initiator-specific problem. A session with a rapidly climbing error count would prompt an admin to check that specific initiator's network path or HBA/NIC health.

Examples

Walk all instances (SNMPv2c):

snmpwalk -v2c -c public <target> 1.3.6.1.4.1.12740.11.1.1.1.1
snmpwalk -v2c -c public <target> EQLISCSI-MIB::eqliscsiSsnErrorCount

Get a specific instance (index 1):

snmpget -v2c -c public <target> 1.3.6.1.4.1.12740.11.1.1.1.1.1
snmpget -v2c -c public <target> EQLISCSI-MIB::eqliscsiSsnErrorCount.1

How to Use in IPNetwork Monitor

Select a Dell EqualLogic iSCSI storage array 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 eqliscsiSsnErrorCount 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. The number of errors encountered since this session was established. 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.
