For CA Nimsoft Monitor
You can view self-health monitoring metrics in UMP starting with version 1.6 of the SNMP Data Monitoring (snmpcollector) probe. The self-health metrics provide data you can use to determine the health of your snmpcollector probe configuration.
The SNMP Data Monitoring probe self-health metrics that appear in UMP are produced every 5 minutes at the end of the current interval. Once the metric values are produced, the metric values reset for the next interval.
The self-health metrics are:
- DeviceCount – The total number of monitored SNMP devices.
- DeviceTimeouts – The number of devices that had an SNMP timeout. Timeouts occur when a device is unreachable or there is network latency.
- DeviceTimeoutsPercentage – The percentage of devices with at least one SNMP timeout.
- DevicesWithUnpollableMetrics – The number of devices that had polling errors not including timeouts.
- DevicesWithUnpollableMetricsPercentage – The percentage of devices that had polling errors not including timeouts.
- ElementCount – The total number of elements or sub-components being monitored. For example, Interface, Fan, CPU.
- FailedPolledMetricsPercentage – The percentage of devices that failed.
- PollingMissedPolls – Number of devices and device components that were not polled due to over scheduled resources.
- PollingMissedPollsPercentage – The percentage of devices and device components that were not polled due to over scheduled resources.
- SuccessfulPolledMetrics – The number of successfully polled metrics.
- SuccessfulPolledMetricsPercentage – The percentage of total configured metrics that were successfully polled.
- UnpollableMetrics – The number of metrics that did not timeout and were not delivered because the expression cannot be calculated. This is usually due to the target device not supporting all of the OIDs needed to satisfy the expression.
