I have this Hitachi HCP device that reports status of ssds per node, SNMP
responds at a cluster level and contains data for each node. I'm having an
issue using the generator for this config because the table that contains
SSD information uses the node numbers as the index and not the SSD disks
themselves.
Here is the snippet from the MIB
--- SSD status and wear level information --
hcpSsdNodeTable OBJECT-TYPE
SYNTAX SEQUENCE OF HcpSsdNodeTableEntry
MAX-ACCESS not-accessible
STATUS current
DESCRIPTION
"Table of SSDs in the HCP system nodes."
::= { hcpNodes 9 }
-- node SSD table row declaration
hcpSsdNodeTableEntry OBJECT-TYPE
SYNTAX HcpSsdNodeTableEntry
MAX-ACCESS not-accessible
STATUS current
DESCRIPTION
"Information about each SSD."
INDEX { nodeNumber }
::= { hcpSsdNodeTable 1 }
-- node SSD table row syntax
HcpSsdNodeTableEntry ::=
SEQUENCE {
ssdNodeNumber INTEGER,
ssdEnclosure DisplayString,
ssdSlot INTEGER,
ssdModel DisplayString,
ssdStatus DisplayString,
ssdWear INTEGER,
ssdThreshold INTEGER,
ssdConfigThreshold INTEGER,
ssdHealth DisplayString
}
The generated config creates a metric for the snmp.yml like this
- name: ssdStatus
oid: 1.3.6.1.4.1.116.5.46.1.9.1.5
type: DisplayString
help: Current status of the SSD - 1.3.6.1.4.1.116.5.46.1.9.1.5
indexes:
- labelname: nodeNumber
type: gauge
SNMP walk metrics look like this
HCP-MIB::ssdStatus.110.3 = STRING: online
HCP-MIB::ssdStatus.110.4 = STRING: online
HCP-MIB::ssdStatus.110.5 = STRING: online
HCP-MIB::ssdStatus.110.6 = STRING: online
HCP-MIB::ssdStatus.110.7 = STRING: online
HCP-MIB::ssdStatus.110.8 = STRING: online
This doesn't work because the index of the table is the node number and it
just creates duplicate metrics. I can't do a lookup on anything else in
that table, the only way I've been able to remedy it is manually add a
label that makes the metrics unique into the snmp.yml config like this
- name: ssdStatus
oid: 1.3.6.1.4.1.116.5.46.1.9.1.5
type: DisplayString
help: Current status of the SSD - 1.3.6.1.4.1.116.5.46.1.9.1.5
indexes:
- labelname: nodeNumber
type: gauge
* - labelname: ssdSlot*
* type: gauge*
My question is, is there a way to create a valid generator config on
devices that return multiple entries in a table that use a non unique index?
