Applies to

  • ONTAP 9
  • Simple Network Management Protocol (SNMP)
  • Advanced Disk Partitioning (ADP)

Issue

  • ONTAP returns a spareStatus of 4 for ADP spare disks:

[root@LinuxHost ~]# snmpwalk -v3 -l AuthPriv -u 'zabbix' -a SHA256 -A "abcd:A-bcde" -x AES128 -X "abcd:A-bcde" 192.168.1.1 1.3.6.1.4.1.789.1.6.3.1.3.1

SNMPv2-SMI::enterprises.789.1.6.3.1.3.1 = INTEGER: 4
  • Looking at the netapp.mib file, a status of spare(1) would be expected instead of unknown(4):

spareStatus                     OBJECT-TYPE
    SYNTAX                          INTEGER {
                                             spare(1),
                                             addingspare(2),
                                             bypassed(3),
                                             unknown(4),
                                             offline(10)
                                        }
