A File System Monitoring rule was created to generate an alarm when the File System is offline. Either when the File System (disk) is deleted or put in an offline state, no alarm is generated.
The Windows native SNMP agent is reconciling the instances/indexes of the Disk in the MIB when the Disk is either deleted or put in an offline state, hence Spectrum doesn't know if the disk is deleted or offline.
Either deleting or putting the disk offline, the Drive E is missing in hrStorageDescr (OID 1.3.6.1.2.1.25.2.3.1.3 - hrStorageDescr).
When the disk is either deleted or put in an offline state, the index/instance 4 becomes drive F, which is an active disk, hence Spectrum will not generate the alarm.

The workaround is to use the SystemEDGE agent rather than the MS Window native SNMP agent.
