PRTG Manual: SNMP HPE ProLiant Logical Disk Sensor
The SNMP HPE ProLiant Logical Disk sensor monitors a logical disk in an HPE server 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 HPE ProLiant Logische Schijf
- French: HPE ProLiant disque logique (SNMP)
- German: SNMP HPE ProLiant Logischer Datenträger
- Japanese: SNMP HPE ProLiant 論理ディスク
- Portuguese: Disco lógico HPE ProLiant (SNMP)
- Russian: Логический диск HPE ProLiant по SNMP
- Simplified Chinese: SNMP HPE ProLiant 逻辑磁盘
- Spanish: Disco lógico HPE ProLiant (SNMP)
- For Gen10 servers: This sensor requires HPE Agentless Management and the HPE Agentless Management Service on the target system.
- For Gen10 servers: Use the HPE Integrated Lights Out (iLO) interface as the parent device.
- For Gen9 servers or earlier: This sensor requires HPE Insight Management Agents and HPE Insight Management WBEM Providers on the target system.
- This sensor supports iLO as of iLO 3. We recommend that you use at least iLO 4.
- This sensor supports IPv6.
- This sensor has a very low performance impact.
- This sensor uses lookups to determine the status values of one or more channels.
Requirement |
Description |
---|---|
For Gen9 servers or earlier, this sensor requires a specific HPE system management tool to be installed on the target system to report data via SNMP: HPE Insight Management Agents. To receive SNMP data from redundant array of independent disks (RAID) controllers, the sensor also requires HPE Insight Management Agents. For Gen10 servers, this sensor no longer requires HPE system management tools. Instead, the sensor requires the HPE Agentless Management Service to be installed on the target system.

Sensor Name |
Enter a name to identify the sensor. By default, PRTG shows this name in the device tree, as well as in alarms, logs, notifications, reports, maps, libraries, and tickets.
|
Parent Tags |
The tags that the sensor inherits from its parent device, parent group, and parent probe.
|
Tags |
Enter one or more tags. Confirm each tag with the Spacebar key, a comma, or the Enter key. You can use tags to group objects and use tag-filtered views later on. Tags are not case-sensitive. Tags are automatically inherited.
The sensor has the following default tags that are automatically predefined in the sensor's settings when you add the sensor:
|
Priority |
Select a priority for the sensor. This setting determines the position of the sensor in lists. The highest priority is at the top of a list. Choose from the lowest priority ( |

Primary Channel |
Select a channel from the list to define it as the primary channel. In the device tree, the last value of the primary channel is always displayed below the sensor's name. The available options depend on what channels are available for this sensor.
|
Graph Type |
Define how different channels are shown for this sensor:
|
Stack Unit |
This setting is only visible if you enable Stack channels on top of each other as Graph Type. Select a unit from the list. All channels with this unit are stacked 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.
For more information, see section Root Group Settings, section Scanning Interval.
Schedules, Dependencies, and Maintenance Window
You cannot interrupt the inheritance for schedules, dependencies, and maintenance windows. The corresponding settings from the parent objects are always active. However, you can define additional schedules, dependencies, and maintenance windows. They are active at the same time as the parent objects' settings.
For more information, see section Root Group Settings, section Schedules, Dependencies, and Maintenance Window.
For more information, see section Root Group Settings, section Access Rights.
Which channel units are available depends on the sensor type and the available parameters. If no configurable channels are available, this field shows No configurable channels.
For more information, see section Root Group Settings, section Channel Unit Configuration.
Which channels the sensor actually shows might depend on the target device, the available components, and the sensor setup.

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 |
