Monitoring Domino Server with SNMP

Requirement

According to the IBM Lotus Domino Administrator Help, the Domino SNMP Agent must be installed on the Domino server.

The agent consists of:

  • LNSNMP
  • QuerySet Handler
  • Event Interceptor

The MIB file is located at the Domino executable directory of any Domino 7 server or newer.

A copy is here: NOTES-MIB. But may not be up to date.

Interesting SNMP entries

Objects with the string --<< , contains Domino statistics.

Example:

lnDeadMail OBJECT-TYPE --<< INT mail.dead
   SYNTAX INTEGER (0..2147483647)
   ACCESS read-only
   STATUS optional
   DESCRIPTION
     "Number of dead (undeliverable) mail messages."
   ::= { lnMail 1 }

   SYNTAX INTEGER (0..2147483647)

   ACCESS read-only
   STATUS optional
