SYNOLOGY-SERVICES-MIB

Description: Monitors Synology NAS service availability including file sharing, backup, and application services.

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.

SYNOLOGY-SERVICES-MIB is a Synology module for monitoring the availability and usage of DiskStation Manager (DSM) services on a Synology NAS, such as file-sharing, backup, and application services. It exposes a per-service table listing each service's name and the number of currently connected users. Its monitoring value is software/service status: confirming which NAS services are active and how many clients are using each one, which helps detect a service that is down (zero users where usage is expected) or overloaded (unusually high concurrent user counts). It is a self-contained Synology-specific module without notable dependency on other standard MIBs. It is deployed on Synology DiskStation/RackStation NAS appliances in home, SMB, or enterprise file-storage environments. Engineers can download the SYNOLOGY-SERVICES-MIB file directly to load it into their MIB browser.

An admin walks the synologyServiceTable/serviceEntry, using serviceInfoIndex and serviceName to identify each DSM service (e.g., file sharing or backup), and monitors serviceUsers for that service. A service showing zero serviceUsers when clients are known to be actively connecting would indicate that service has silently failed or stopped accepting connections on the NAS.
