PRTG Manual: SNMP Nutanix Cluster Health Sensor
The SNMP Nutanix Cluster Health sensor monitors the status and the performance of a Nutanix cluster via the Simple Network Management Protocol (SNMP).
For a detailed list and descriptions of the channels that this sensor can show, see section Channel List.
- Dutch: SNMP Nutanix Cluster Health
- French: Nutanix état de cluster (SNMP)
- German: SNMP Nutanix Clusterzustand
- Japanese: SNMP Nutanix クラスターの正常性
- Portuguese: Funcionamento do cluster Nutanix (SNMP)
- Russian: Работоспособность кластера SNMP Nutanix
- Simplified Chinese: SNMP Nutanix 群集运行状况
- Spanish: Salud de clúster Nutanix (SNMP)
Consider the following remarks and requirements for this sensor:
Remark |
Description |
---|---|
SNMP v3 |
Nutanix devices only support SNMP v3. Make sure that you select SNMP v3 in the credentials for SNMP devices settings of the parent device. |
IPv6 |
This sensor supports IPv6. |
Performance impact |
This sensor has a low performance impact. |
Lookups |
This sensor uses lookups to determine the status values of one or more channels. |
The sensor has the following default tags that are automatically predefined in the sensor's settings when you add the sensor:
- nutanix
- snmp
- snmpnutanixclusterhealthsensor
For more information about basic sensor settings, see section Sensor Settings.
Setting |
Description |
---|---|
Measurement |
The type of measurement that this sensor monitors. |
Sensor Version |
The version of the sensor definition that was used to create this sensor. |
Identifier |
The value that the sensor uses to find the component in the OID table. |
OID Index |
The OID table index that this sensor uses. |
Setting |
Description |
---|---|
Result Handling |
Define what PRTG does with the sensor result:
This option is not available when the sensor runs on the hosted probe of a PRTG Hosted Monitor instance. In a cluster, PRTG stores the result in the PRTG data directory of the master node. |
Setting |
Description |
---|---|
Primary Channel |
Select a channel from the list to define it as the primary channel. In the device tree, PRTG displays the last value of the primary channel below the sensor's name. The available options depend on what channels are available for this sensor. You can set a different primary channel later by clicking below a channel gauge on the sensor's Overview tab. |
Graph Type |
Define how this sensor shows different channels:
|
Stack Unit |
This setting is only visible if you select Stack channels on top of each other above. Select a unit from the list. PRTG stacks all channels with this unit on top of each other. By default, you cannot exclude single channels from stacking if they use the selected unit. However, there is an advanced procedure to do so. |
By default, all of these settings are inherited from objects that are higher in the hierarchy. We recommend that you change them centrally in the root group settings if necessary. To change a setting for this object only, click under the corresponding setting name to disable the inheritance and to display its options.
For more information, see section Inheritance of Settings.
Which channels the sensor actually shows might depend on the target device, the available components, and the sensor setup.
Channel |
Description |
---|---|
Downtime |
In the channel table on the Overview tab, this channel never shows any values. PRTG uses this channel in graphs and reports to show the amount of time in which the sensor was in the Down status |
I/O Bandwidth |
The bandwidth of I/O operations |
I/O Latency |
The latency of I/O operations |
I/O Operations |
The number of I/O operations |
Status |
The Nutanix cluster status
This channel is the primary channel by default. |
