REST API: getting and filtering events

Hello vrbitman,

Here is a link to a kb that maybe of assistance. https://dell.to/3V9bxyh

Hi Sam,

the KB is interesting but I'm not sure it's feasible. It seems to me that I would have to manually reconfigure notifications for every possible alert, which are numerous no doubt.
But even if I had the time to reconfigure all of them, I wouldn't know where to start because I don't have a list.

You will see that you can only filter on event_instance and eventgroup_id.  So that leaves you with parsing in your code.

I see.. I'm not a programmer but a sysadmin so I'm not going that route either.
Does anyone know how to download the correct OID file so I can monitor it via SNMP?
When I log in and click to download it straight from the PowerScale system, I get page not found.
I've looked up the documentation but couldn't find anything helpful.
Thank you all very much so far.

Hello vrbitman,

You should be able to download the mib file from oneFS GUI itself. Under cluster management -> general settings ->SNMP monitoring.

Hi Sam,

when I try to do that I get error 403 Forbidden, even though I'm logged in as admin.

Hello vrbitman,

Try this link to download the mib files. https://dell.to/3HI0TZA

Hi Sam,

that's PowerStore not PowerScale.

Hi,
I think this could be something what you wanted:
'https://localhost:8080/platform/3/event/eventgroup-occurrences?severity=warning&severity=emergency&severity=critical'

Here can you find the MIB File :
/base/usr/local/share/snmp/mibs/ISILON-MIB.txt

Thanks.
The filters in the URL do not work. If I go to "https://localhost:8080/platform/3/event/eventgroup-occurrences" I can see all the events, but if I add the filter I'm getting empty output.

For now I've downloaded the MIB file you suggested and have passed it on to my colleagues to see if that works.
