Quantum Scalar i3 SNMP Monitoring

Community MKP for monitoring Quantum Scalar i3 tape libraries with Checkmk.

This package adds native-style SNMP checks for devices using the Quantum Scalar i3 / i6 MIB branch:

1.3.6.1.4.1.3697.1.10.15

It is intended for Scalar i3 systems, not for the existing Checkmk quantum_libsmall_* checks, which are designed for Quantum Small Tape Libraries.

What you get

• Overall Scalar i3 health status
• Library control, drive and media RAS health
• Robotics and magazine state
• I/E area state
• Open RAS ticket count
• Tape drive discovery, one service per physical drive
• Logical library / partition discovery
• Power supply discovery and power consumption
• Temperature and humidity sensor monitoring
• Capacity monitoring for storage slots, I/E slots, media and cleaning media
• HW/SW inventory for Scalar i3 model, firmware, serial-numbers and components

Created services

The package can create services such as:

• Quantum Scalar i3 health
• Quantum Scalar i3 I/E area
• Quantum Scalar i3 RAS tickets
• Quantum Scalar i3 capacity
• Quantum Scalar i3 drive serial-number
• Quantum Scalar i3 logical library name
• Quantum Scalar i3 power supply location
• Quantum Scalar i3 sensor name

The exact number of services depends on the hardware configuration and the data exposed by the device SNMP walk.

Requirements

• Checkmk 2.5
• SNMP access to the Quantum Scalar i3
• Device must expose the Quantum Scalar i3 MIB branch under 1.3.6.1.4.1.3697.1.10.15

Installation

Install via mkp add / mkp enable, or Setup >> Extension packages.
