You can monitor the Dell PowerVault TL4000 Tape Library using the Nagios check_snmp plugin. After setting the TL4000 to accept SNMP connections on v2 SNMP you can run the following command below. This queries for the status of the library as a rollup.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
# .\/check_snmp -H <IP Address> -C community -o .1.3.6.1.4.1.674.10893.2.102.2.1.0 -r3<\/p>\n\n\n\n
SNMP OK – 3 | iso.3.6.1.4.1.674.10893.2.102.2.1.0=3<\/p>\n\n\n\n
So this will query the tape library on the IP address and return the status as a number. 3 = OK, anything we want to know about so using the -r expression means you can enter a regex expression. This is a simple one, if its not 3, its not OK and we want Nagios to report an error!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
