iscsiInstDescr
Module: ISCSI-MIB
OID (symbolic): ISCSI-MIB::iscsiInstDescr
OID (numeric): 1.3.6.1.2.1.142.1.1.1.1.2
Node type: OBJECT-TYPE
Type: SnmpAdminString
Access: read-only
Description: A UTF-8 string, determined by the implementation to describe the iSCSI instance. When only a single instance is present, this object may be set to the zero-length string; with multiple iSCSI instances, it may be used in an implementation-dependent manner to describe the purpose of the respective instance.
What is iscsiInstDescr?
A UTF-8 string an administrator or the device itself sets to describe this iSCSI instance; it can be left blank when only one instance exists, or used to distinguish instances by purpose when a system runs several iSCSI stacks.
Examples
Walk all instances (SNMPv2c):
snmpwalk -v2c -c public <target> 1.3.6.1.2.1.142.1.1.1.1.2 snmpwalk -v2c -c public <target> ISCSI-MIB::iscsiInstDescr
Get a specific instance (index 1):
snmpget -v2c -c public <target> 1.3.6.1.2.1.142.1.1.1.1.2.1 snmpget -v2c -c public <target> ISCSI-MIB::iscsiInstDescr.1
Start monitoring Vendor-neutral IETF standard (iSCSI targets, initiators, storage servers/SANs) with a free 30-day trial of IPNetwork Monitor. Create custom SNMP monitor using the ISCSI-MIB::iscsiInstDescr OID value, configure state conditions and alerts, and monitor any Vendor-neutral IETF standard (iSCSI targets, initiators, storage servers/SANs) from a single console.
