The Solution Rating System

With so many solutions, how can you tell which solutions are most likely to help you and which ones are not? To provide you with a tool to use, we rate our solutions based on various elements that most accurately determine if a solution is a quality solution. To explain what factors affect the solution rating, here are the elements we take into consideration when formulating our solution rating.

  • The Grade of the Solution
  • The Zone Rank of the Expert Providing the Solution
  • The Number of Author and Expert Comments
  • The Number of Experts Contributing
  • The Feedback of the Community

Your Input Matters
Because of the way the system is set up, the most important variable in this equation is you. As a member of Experts Exchange, you are able to cast your vote on the quality of the solutions in regard to how complete, accurate, helpful and easy to understand each solution is. When you provide your feedback, each rating is adjusted accordingly. So, if you see a solution that has a poor rating that you think is a good solution, let us know by rating it. As you do, the rating will be adjusted and will become more accurate for other members of our site.

If you have any suggestions that you would like to make for our rating system, please ask a question in the Suggestions Zone of Community Support.

Thank you!

Equallogic - OID for Volume Free Space ?

Asked by bondit in Network Analysis Software, IT Administration, Hard Drives & Storage

Tags: Equallogic, SNMP, MIB, OID

Hi,

I have been asked to configure a monitoring & alerting rule (using LPI's Managed Workplace) for the free space on a volume on an Equallogic PS5000 iSCSI SAN (firmware 3.3.1).

Looking through the MIB file for that device (obtained from the equallogic website) I have not been able to identify an OID that reports the free space available on a volume. And although we have a support contract with Dell Equallogic they were not able to give us any information about MIBs and OIDs (apart from telling us where to download the MIBs from, which we already knew).

Does anyone out there know of the appropriate OID ?
Should I be looking in a generic MIB ?

I have done snmp walk on the device using iReasoning MIB Browser. I can locate an OID for the total space of a volume, but not the free space. Does that OID even exist?

The equallogic management page shows the item that I'm looking for (see pic showing used and free space on volume), so you would think there would be an OID for it.

Thanks.
