Monitoring power supply/fan/temperature of VDX 6740s

Monitoring power supply/fan/temperature of VDX 6740s

Hello,

I'm trying to configure Nagios to get the state of PS/fan and temperature on two 6740 VDXs (one running 6.0.2b NOS and another one running 7.2.0b NOS).

The SNMP configuration on both devices is identical:

code:
snmp-server contact noc@domain.org
snmp-server location "DCA"
snmp-server sys-descr "Brocade VDX 6740"
snmp-server community xxxxx groupname NOC
snmp-server view All 1 included
snmp-server view NOC 1 included
snmp-server group NOC v2c read All


The script I'm using is from here.

I have no issues with the VDX running 7.2.0b NOS, but with 6.0.2b I can't get a list of sensors (it looks like relevant OIDs don't exist, hence the script fails).

Below is a working flow (from 7.2.0b):

Any hints would be greatly appreciated.

Thank you.

Hello,

If you are not using FCoE and/or NPIV, then there are no impact to disabling AG mode. After disabling it in the CLI, it will stop the AG service and re-sync HA between the two switch partitions which takes about 3-5 mins.

@Truyen Phan many thanks -- I'll try it.

What would be the impact of disabling AG? Our 6740Ts running 6.0.2b are in a fabric, no FCoE, L2 only, with several ISLs.
