Description

Template for Dell PowerConnect Ethernet Switch. Monitors fan status, power supply status, global status, etc. Tested on PowerConnect 5448 Ethernet switch.

Prerequisites

SNMP should be enabled in end device and device should support Dell-Vendor-MIB OIDs and SNMP credentials should be attached against the device in portal.

How to Apply: This template is All instance selection based. It will not ask user to select any instance (s) while assigning it to a device.

Metric Parameters

Metric Parameters
ParameterDescription
Frequency
  • Frequency is the interval in which you want to probe and collect metric data from the target device/resource
  • Frequency is defined in minutes (min).
  • Warning ThresholdIf the metric value satisfies the condition defined along with Warning Threshold value, then a notification is sent to the user.
    Critical ThresholdIf the metric value satisfies the condition defined along with Critical Threshold value, then a notification is sent to the user.
    AlertThe alert value can be set to either Yes or No. If it is Yes, then an alert message is sent to the user.

    ExpressionNULL
    DescriptionIndicates the current status of the Dell PowerConnect product. This is a rollup for the entire product. The status is intended to give initiative to a snmp monitor to get further data when this status is abnormal. Possible status values are 3- OK: If fans and power supplies are functioning and the system did not reboot because of a HW watchdog failure or a SW fatal error condition. 4- Non-critical: If at least one power supply is not functional or the system rebooted at least once because of a HW watchdog failure or a SW fatal error condition, 5- Critical: If at least one fan is not functional, possibly causing a dangerous warming up of the device.
