LEGATO-CLUSTER-MIB

Description: Legato Systems (now part of EMC/Dell) MIB for monitoring cluster configuration and failover status in Legato cluster environments.

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.

LEGATO-CLUSTER-MIB is a vendor MIB from Legato Systems, a backup/storage software company later absorbed into EMC and Dell, used for managing high-availability cluster configuration and failover status. Based on its description, it exposes cluster membership/configuration data and failover state information rather than raw performance counters. It is used to monitor the software status of clustered systems, specifically whether a node is active, standby, or has failed over, making it valuable for detecting split-brain conditions or a failed cluster node. As a Legato-specific module, it likely depends on the vendor's own enterprise MIB tree rather than a widely standardized cluster MIB. It is typically deployed in enterprise data-protection/backup server clusters (e.g., Legato NetWorker) requiring failover monitoring for business continuity. Engineers can download the LEGATO-CLUSTER-MIB file directly to load it into their MIB browser.

No specific object or table names were provided for this module, so a precise polling example cannot be constructed with grounded identifiers. Typically, though, an admin would poll cluster node status and failover-state objects to confirm which node is currently active and detect an unexpected failover event. A status object stuck in a transitional or unknown state would suggest a cluster node is unreachable or has failed to complete failover correctly.
