A System Alarms
A system alarm is triggered when a condition or event happens within either the system hardware or software. Given a specific alarm, the system generates the appropriate SNMP trap. These traps include a description of the event or condition that caused the trap to be generated; or provides information associated with the alarm, such as the interface ID (ifIndex)/status or object identifier/object type integer values.
The following table maps system alarms to SNMP traps. This table includes the following information:
- alarm names
- alarm IDs
- alarm severities (including threshold values)
- alarm causes
- example log messages
In addition, this table specifies the type of traps that are generated for SNMP and the trap reference locations (the supported MIB or RFC).
Alarm Name | Alarm ID | Alarm Severity | Cause(s) | Example Log Message | Trap Generated (Trap Reference) |
---|---|---|---|---|---|
FAN STOPPED | 65537 | CRITICAL: any fan speed is <50%. Or speed of
two or more fans is >50% and <75%.
MAJOR: speed of two or more fans is > 75% and < 90%. Or speed of one fan is >50% and <75% and the other two fans are at normal speed. MINOR: speed of one fan> 75% and <90%, the other two fans are at normal speed. |
Fan speed failure.
NOTE: If this alarm occurs, the system turns up the fan speed to the fastest possible speed. |
fan speed: XXXX, XXXX, XXXX
(where xxxx xxxx xxxx is the revolutions per minute (RPM) of each fan on the fan module) |
