Hot-Swap

Only the saHpiHotSwapStateGet() function is supported.

All resources except the SYSTEM_CHASSIS resource for rackmount servers follow the simple two-state hot-swap (NOT_PRESENT or ACTIVE). The SYSTEM_CHASSIS resource for a server can transition through the five-state HPI hot-swap model (NOT_PRESENT, INACTIVE, INSERTION_PENDING, ACTIVE, or EXTRACTION_PENDING).

When you insert a server into the modular system, the modular system attempts to create an RMCP session with the Oracle ILOM of the server. Once the session is established, the plugin discovers the resources, sensors, controls, and inventories on the server.

After the discovery is complete, first NOT_PRESENT then ACTIVE hot-swap events are sent for each resource associated with the server, except for the SYSTEM_CHASSIS resource. The SYSTEM_CHASSIS resource follows the five-state HPI hot-swap model described in the HPI specification.

If a server is removed from the NMS, the ACTIVE to NOT_PRESENT hot-swap events are generated for each resource associated with the server. The SYSTEM_CHASSIS resource for the server follows the five-state HPI hot-swap model described in the HPI specification.
