Server Administrator Instrumentation MIB
The Server Administrator Instrumentation MIB ( lename 10892.mib ) provides instrumentation data that allows you to monitor the health
of a system with SNMP management applications. It provides:
• Information about the status of temperatures, power supplies, voltages, currents, fans, and memory at key points in the system
• Rapid access to detailed fault and performance information gathered by industry standard systems management agents
• Version information for Basic Input/Output System (BIOS), rmware, and operating system
• A detailed account of every cost of ownership (COO) detail about your system
In addition, traps are sent to report a change in status of the health of critical components.
The Server Administrator Instrumentation MIB structures its MIB objects into groups of scalar objects or MIB tables that provide related
information. The below table describes each Server Administrator Instrumentation MIB group and lists the MIB group number assigned to
the MIB group. The Server Administrator Instrumentation MIB groups are identied by the SNMP OID 1.3.6.1.4.1.674.10892.1.<MIB group
number>, where <MIB group number> is the MIB group number assigned to the MIB group. See the relevant section for more information
about the MIB objects dened in a MIB group.
