SNMP test question

Post by bmekler »

I'm querying a NetApp filer's SNMP tables for values. The tables are organized as follows, as an example using the LUN table:

.iso.org.dod.internet.private.enterprises.netapp.netapp1.blocks.lun.lunTable.lunEntry.lunIndex = LUN number (.1.3.6.1.4.1.789.1.17.15.2.1.1)
.iso.org.dod.internet.private.enterprises.netapp.netapp1.blocks.lun.lunTable.lunEntry.lunName = LUN name (.1.3.6.1.4.1.789.1.17.15.2.1.2)
.iso.org.dod.internet.private.enterprises.netapp.netapp1.blocks.lun.lunTable.lunEntry.lun64ReadOps = SCSI read ops since last reset (.1.3.6.1.4.1.789.1.17.15.2.1.33)

Suppose I have a LUN named DataDB.lun. In order to create a test that records its read IOPS, I need to snmpwalk through the lunName column, and find its number - let's say 23. In this case, I create a new SNMP GET test, with .1.3.6.1.4.1.789.1.17.15.2.1.33.23 (lun64ReadOps.23) as the target, and then append DataDB.lun to the %mibnameshort% variable in the test name, so that it can identified at a glance.

Question: Is it possible to configure the test name in such a way that it will automatically pull the SNMP value of a provided OID, which, in this case, would be .1.3.6.1.4.1.789.1.17.15.2.1.2.23?

No.
Test name may contain/evaluate only folder-related and test-properties variables:
