rdbmsDbLimitedResourceFailures

Module: RDBMS-MIB

OID (symbolic): RDBMS-MIB::rdbmsDbLimitedResourceFailures

OID (numeric): 1.3.6.1.2.1.39.1.4.1.6

Node type: OBJECT-TYPE

Type: Counter32

Access: read-only

Description: The number of times the system wanted to exceed the limit of the resource since applUpTime was reset for the earliest server which has the database actively opened.

If there are two servers with the DB open, and the oldest one dies, the proper way to invalidate the value is by resetting sysUpTime.

What is rdbmsDbLimitedResourceFailures?

A running count of how many times the database wanted to exceed this resource's limit since the relevant server's uptime was last reset; a nonzero and climbing value tells an admin this resource genuinely needs to be raised or investigated.

Examples

Walk all instances (SNMPv2c):

snmpwalk -v2c -c public <target> 1.3.6.1.2.1.39.1.4.1.6
snmpwalk -v2c -c public <target> RDBMS-MIB::rdbmsDbLimitedResourceFailures

Get a specific instance (index 1):

snmpget -v2c -c public <target> 1.3.6.1.2.1.39.1.4.1.6.1
snmpget -v2c -c public <target> RDBMS-MIB::rdbmsDbLimitedResourceFailures.1

How to Use in IPNetwork Monitor

Select a database server 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 rdbmsDbLimitedResourceFailures 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 times the system wanted to exceed the limit of the resource since applUpTime was reset for the earliest server which has the database actively opened. 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.
