cbsHwFanFailed
Module: CBS-HARDWARE-MIB
OID (symbolic): CBS-HARDWARE-MIB::cbsHwFanFailed
OID (numeric): 1.3.6.1.4.1.6848.4.1.9
Node type: NOTIFICATION-TYPE
Description: One of the system cooling fans has failed.
What is cbsHwFanFailed?
This is a notification (SNMP trap) that is sent when a system cooling fan fails or stops operating properly in a CBS hardware platform. Fan failure is a critical hardware alert because it reduces system cooling capacity and can lead to thermal shutdown if not addressed promptly. Network operations staff receives this notification to immediately dispatch hardware maintenance before the system overheats.
Examples
Send this trap to an SNMP manager — replace <manager> with the IP or hostname of your monitoring server (SNMPv2c):
snmptrap -v2c -c public <manager> '' CBS-HARDWARE-MIB::cbsHwFanFailed snmptrap -v2c -c public <manager> '' 1.3.6.1.4.1.6848.4.1.9
Listen for incoming traps on the manager host (-f keeps it in the foreground, -Lo prints to stdout — useful for testing):
snmptrapd -f -Lo -c /dev/null authCommunity log public
Example snmptrapd log entry:
