Overall stack/switch/enclosure status via SNMP polling

Overall stack/switch/enclosure status via SNMP polling

Looking for suggestions. We use Auvik to poll SNMP OIDs on our Extreme devices. Since there is no way to anticipate the possible number of power supplies in a stack of devices (seemingly, each has the option of supporting 4 based on the mib), there's no way for us to poll without building switch/stack-specific pollers for every possible option. Is there a simpler "stack level" OID that indicates that there's simply a problem with the health of the overall stack (power, member, etc.)? There's no macro/scripting parser, so OID polling is our only option. Thanks in advance!

You can display the stack member number by using the show switch EXEC command.

Thanks. That I'm familiar with. The issue is trying to build an SNMP poller that accurately polls any Extreme device at scale without customizing which OIDs to poll for each. As I said, there's no scripting component in Auvik, only OID polling (unless they build something, which they haven't).
