SSB-SNMP-MIB::ssbHardwareRaidVDTable
For which systems and configurations is it applicable? When this particular hardware supports this particular (syslog-ng Store Box Appliance 3000, syslog-ng Store Box Appliance 3500, syslog-ng Store Box Appliance 4000) RAID type.
Value change frequency The values in this table are not supposed to change.
Related issues and issue indicators If the value of table element ssbHardwareRaidVdState is other than Optl and there is no RAID synchronization (which is indicated by object value SSB-SNMP-MIB::ssbHardwareRaidSyncRate), it indicates a RAID status error.

Solution:

  • The statuses indicating that the RAID is in degraded mode probably indicate physical disk error. For technical assistance, contact our Support Team.

Monitoring software RAID

SNMP object: SSB-SNMP-MIB::ssbSoftwareRaid
Type: This is a grouping node

Community (v2c) /

Context (v3)

System
Short description: Detailed information about software Raid devices

Description: Monitor the software RAID of syslog-ng Store Box (SSB), responsible for providing disk availability if, for example, a disk fails. It is used to monitor the status of the disks in a legacy SSB (syslog-ng Store Box T1) appliance.

Available on SSB appliances, on the SNMP community provided by the boot-firmwares. That is, on the ID-based communities at the Basic Settings > Monitoring > SNMP agent settings page.

Short description: Raid sync speed
SSB-SNMP-MIB::ssbSoftwareRaidDeviceTable
For which systems and configurations is it applicable? When this particular hardware has a software RAID (legacy syslog-ng Store Box T1 appliance).
Value change frequency The values of these table elements rarely change. In particular, the table columns ssbSoftwareRaidDeviceSyncProgress and ssbSoftwareRaidDeviceSyncSpeed only have values in case of RAID synchronization.
Related issues and issue indicators

1. If ssbSoftwareRaidDeviceSyncProgress does not reach 100% for a long time, and the percentage or progress value does not change, either.

2. If the returned value for ssbSoftwareRaidDeviceSyncSpeed is too low or stops for a long time.

3. If ssbSoftwareRaidDeviceStatus returns degraded.

Short description: Current temperature of the block device
SSB-SNMP-MIB::ssbSoftwareRaidBlockDeviceTable
For which systems and configurations is it applicable? When this particular hardware has a software RAID (legacy syslog-ng Store Box T1 appliance).
Value change frequency

1. BlockDeviceTemperature may change depending on disk load. It is an ambient analog value, and thus continuously changing, but not problematic within a given value range. Note that manufacturing standards allow for a maximum of 60-70 °C, with a normal temperature range of 35-45 °C.

2. RAIDBlockDeviceSMARTHealthCheckStatus is not supposed to change. Ideally, it is supposed to return Passed. If it returns Failed, it indicates an issue.

Related issues and issue indicators

1. If BlockDeviceTemperature is too high for too long. Note that manufacturing standards allow for a maximum of 60-70 °C, with a normal temperature range of 35-45 °C.

2. If RAIDBlockDeviceSMARTHealthCheckStatus returns Failed.
