checkCtrlOperStatus
Module: CHECK-MIB
OID (symbolic): CHECK-MIB::checkCtrlOperStatus
OID (numeric): 1.3.6.1.2.1.7777.1.2.2
Node type: OBJECT-TYPE
Type: INTEGER
Access: read-only
Description: The current operational state of the Check MIB implementation. The up(1) state indicates that all checks defined in the checkResultTable and the checkRuleTable are performed. The silent(2) state indicates that all checks are performed as defined in the checkResultTable and the checkRuleTable, but no notification is sent by the Check MIB implementation. The down(3) state indicates that no check is performed. The flushing(4) state indicates that the checkCtrlAdminStatus has been set to down(3) and the managed node is completing the performance of checks that were scheduled before checkCtrlAdminStatus was set to down(3). If the value of checkCtrlAdminStatus does not change again before these checks are completed, then the value of checkCtrlOperStatus will change to down(3) after the checks are completed.
After a system re-initialization, the Check MIB implementation starts up with this object set to up(1).
What is checkCtrlOperStatus?
This object reports the actual current state of the checking engine: up (checking and notifying), silent (checking but not notifying), down (nothing checked), or flushing, a transitional state likely while clearing pending results after a state change. An admin who just set checkCtrlAdminStatus to a new value polls this to confirm the engine actually transitioned, and seeing it stuck at flushing longer than expected would indicate the engine is having trouble completing that state change cleanly. If an admin sets checkCtrlAdminStatus to down but this object remains at flushing for an extended time, that signals the checking engine isn't cleanly shutting down as requested.
