Sun Server Hardware SNMP Plugins

The Sun Server Hardware SNMP Plugins consist of two Net-SNMP plugins. These Net-SNMP plugins are compiled versions of two Sun-specific hardware Management Information Bases (MIB) that have been designed to enable you to monitor your Sun x86 servers effectively. The Sun HW Monitoring MIB is a newly developed MIB that provides the following information:

• Overall system alarm status

• Aggregate alarm status by device type

• FRU Alarm status

• Lists of sensors, sensor types, sensor readings, and sensor thresholds

• Indicator states

• Control the system locator

• Inventory including basic manufacturing information

• Product and chassis information such as serial number, part number, and so on

• Per-sensor alarm status

The Sun HW Trap MIB describes a set of traps for hardware events that can be generated by a Sun x86 Server and provides the following information:

• Conditions affecting the environmental state of the server, such as overheating of a server or its components, voltage or current for components being out of range, and so on

• Error conditions affecting the hardware components in the server such as FRU insertion/removal, security intrusion notification and so on
