What is vecMessageRequests?

A running count of polling requests the VEC controller has made to the power-system's internal devices (rectifiers, sensors, etc.), the baseline denominator for judging the polling error counters below.

Examples

Walk all instances (SNMPv2c):

snmpwalk -v2c -c public <target> 1.3.6.1.4.1.885.3.1.2.1
snmpwalk -v2c -c public <target> VEC-MIBv5-9::vecMessageRequests

Get a specific instance (index 1):

snmpget -v2c -c public <target> 1.3.6.1.4.1.885.3.1.2.1.1
snmpget -v2c -c public <target> VEC-MIBv5-9::vecMessageRequests.1

SNMPv3 example:

snmpget -v3 -l authPriv -u snmpv3-user -a SHA -A "AuthPassword1" -x AES -X "PrivPassword1" <target> vecMessageRequests.1

Start monitoring Emerson/Vertiv ESNA VEC DC power plant controller (rectifier/PCU/shunt alarm status) with a free 30-day trial of IPNetwork Monitor. Create custom SNMP monitor using the VEC-MIBv5-9::vecMessageRequests OID value, configure state conditions and alerts, and monitor any Emerson/Vertiv ESNA VEC DC power plant controller (rectifier/PCU/shunt alarm status) from a single console.

How to Use in IPNetwork Monitor

Select an Emerson/Vertiv ESNA VEC DC power plant controller (rectifier/PCU/shunt alarm status) 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 vecMessageRequests into the Find box to locate it in the OID tree, then select it and click OK. It reports the total number of message requests. 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 an Integer32-type OID, Value bounds is the most useful condition here — trigger an alert if the count changes from its expected baseline, since that would indicate the underlying set of items changed unexpectedly. Click Finish to create the monitor; you can adjust any parameter later.
