What is cienaCesChassisPrimaryCtrlSlot?

This object reports the slot number holding the chassis's primary (active) control card. An admin uses this to know which physical slot is currently running the management and control-plane software for the whole chassis, important context before performing any maintenance near that slot. For example, a PrimaryCtrlSlot value of 1 means slot 1 currently holds the active control processor, and pulling that card without first triggering a failover would disrupt chassis management.
