redPrimaryState

Module: BASIS-SHELF-MIB

OID (symbolic): BASIS-SHELF-MIB::redPrimaryState

OID (numeric): 1.3.6.1.4.1.351.110.1.3.1.1.4

Node type: OBJECT-TYPE

Type: INTEGER

Access: read-only

Description: This object holds the state of the primary card Some of the states are not supported in the table but they are defined here for consistency with the cardStates. heldInReset, boot and unknown are not supported.

Supported values are :

nocard (1) : Module not present in the slot standby (2) : Module is in 'standby' state active (3) : Module is in 'active' state failed (4) : Module is in 'failed' state due to some condition selfTest(5) : Module is performing selftest mismatch(8) : Module is not compatible with the current configuration or a wrong type of back-card/line-module is plugged in. notResponding(14) : Response from the Service module has become slow probably due to overloading of CPU. No recovery action is required on user part. At present, this state is implemented only for RPM card. cardinit(17) : When the physical presence of card has been detected but the communication hasn't yet been established between the controller card (PXM) and Service Module.

What is redPrimaryState?

This read-only value reports the operational state of the primary redundant card: nocard(1) if absent, standby(2) if passive, active(3) if running, failed(4) if broken, or selfTest(5) when self-testing. Operators monitor this to know which card is handling traffic. Example: state 3 (active) means the primary is currently processing all frames; state 2 (standby) means the backup is ready but idle.
