NAS RS815+ Synology: Disk Failure is not displayed in PRTG.

Hello Jasin,

Thank you for your message.

Regarding the issue with the sensor, I invite you to check the values provided by your NAS with SNMP Tester.

To do so, open SNMP Tester on the PRTG server and then execute a walk on the following OID: "1.3.6.1.4.1.6574.2".

How to use the tester:

• Start the SNMP Tester
• Configure the tester below point "1. Set SNMP Settings"
  • Local IP = Any (at first). If this fails, also switch to one of the listed local IPs
  • Device IP/Port = IP of the target device and the configured port (SNMP uses port 161 by default)
  • SNMP Version = Select the version which is configured on the device
  • Community = Community string defined in the target device
• Below "Select Request Type", switch to the option "Walk" and enter the OID provided above
• Press the "Start" Button on the top
  In the result you get, please check the values returned by the OID which corresponds to the disk status, according to the documentation from Synology (under Synology Disk MIB).

In case the value is equal to 1, then the disk status reported by the NAS is incorrect and therefore I invite you to contact Synology about it.

If you have questions, let us know.

Regards.

Hello, thank you Florian for the answer, so I run the PRTG Tester. This below is the result. To be honest I dont understand if there are any issues.

Thank you for the result.

As you can see below, the values returned by the OIDs are equal to 1 which correspond to the status Normal according to the documentation from Synology:

20.05.2021 11:57:59 (141 ms) : 1.3.6.1.4.1.6574.2.1.1.5.0 = "1" [ASN_INTEGER]
20.05.2021 11:57:59 (147 ms) : 1.3.6.1.4.1.6574.2.1.1.5.1 = "1" [ASN_INTEGER]
20.05.2021 11:57:59 (153 ms) : 1.3.6.1.4.1.6574.2.1.1.5.2 = "1" [ASN_INTEGER]

Therefore, the issue comes from DSM I'm afraid. I can only invite you to contact Synology about this matter.

If there is anything else I can help with, let me know.

Regards.

Hello Paessler Support

I contacted Synology and followed the instructions, so here are the results: ______________________________________________________________________________________ Dear Customer, Thank you for coming back. I will answer at the place of Ferne because he's temporary unavailable. The following disk shows I/O SATA errors : Disk 3 Model Family: Seagate Enterprise NAS HDD Device Model: ST6000VN0001-1SF17Z Serial Number: S4D17A4A

See the pic in this link https://ibb.co/0qSNjss

So to be more precise: I performed the S.M.A.R.T advanced scan in the DSM. Error still persists. Then I contacted Synology and downloaded this log 'dabug.dat' and sent it to Synology, as you can see in the picture 'click on the link'. The hard drive has the error. My question is, and I am looking for a solution, why does PRTG not read this error, why does it not show? Can you take a closer look at this case, or did you have a similar situation before?

Thank you for your attention !!

Hello Florian,

I updated the DSM to version 7 today, but this problem has not been solved. PRTG does not recognize an error message from the drive.

Regards.

Hello Jasin,

Thank you for the update.

As the issue is unfortunately still present with DSM 7, I can only invite you to report it to the support of Synology again. Please, provide them the SNMP result returned by the NAS as illustrated above.

If I can be of further help, let me know.

Regards.

Hello Florian,

I have now another case with the same problem. The errors are not displayed in PRTG.  I have also run SNMP tester and the results are the same = 1. In this case three hard drives have faults/error. (SEAGATE ST4000NC000-1FR168)

Nas model: NAS RS816

I fear that the problem has become very serious, we monitor more than 50 NAS for our clients.  Probably there are more NAS that have problems with the hard disk, and we don't know about it.  Please find a solution. .

Kind regarts, Jasin.

Hello Jasin,

I'm afraid that the issue is not on PRTG side here, as it simply returns the value provided by DSM via SNMP (documented in Synology manual).

We received many requests regarding this issue, therefore I can only recommend you to contact Synology again and make sure that they are aware of the value returned via SNMP, which is incorrect.

Regards.
