Category: Technology: High Availability

Description: Manages high-availability features on Brocade devices including failover state, redundancy groups, and switchover events.

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 HA-MIB?

This is a Brocade enterprise MIB for High Availability features on Brocade networking devices, covering failover state, redundancy group configuration, and switchover event tracking between redundant control components. The single available sample object, fruHistoryFactorySerialNum, indicates this MIB also tracks Field Replaceable Unit (FRU) history data, including the factory-assigned serial number of hardware components. This module directly supports monitoring hardware status: FRU serial number history helps track which physical hardware component (e.g., a supervisor or control module) is installed and correlate it with failover events, useful when diagnosing whether a hardware replacement coincided with a redundancy switchover. Given the very limited sample data, other objects likely cover active/standby role and switchover cause, consistent with typical HA MIB designs, though those specific names cannot be confirmed here. Typical deployment is on Brocade chassis-based switches/directors with redundant control processors, in environments requiring continuous availability of SAN/network fabric services. Engineers can download the HA-MIB file directly to load it into their MIB browser.

IPNetwork Monitor allows you to monitor SNMP objects defined in HA-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

Brocade chassis-based SAN/network switch with redundant control processors

Monitoring Examples

An operator would check fruHistoryFactorySerialNum to confirm the factory serial number of an installed field-replaceable hardware unit, such as a control processor or fan module, useful for correlating a hardware swap with subsequent HA switchover behavior. Because only this one sample object was provided, a full failover-state monitoring scenario, such as active/standby role or last switchover cause, cannot be confirmed from the given data, though the module description indicates such HA state objects exist elsewhere in the MIB. Tracking FRU serial number changes over time can help audit unauthorized or unexpected hardware replacements in a redundant chassis.

What Can Be Monitored

FRU factory serial number history
redundancy/failover state
switchover events
