ciscoScsiFlowNextIndexAvail
Module: CISCO-SCSI-FLOW-MIB
OID (symbolic): CISCO-SCSI-FLOW-MIB::ciscoScsiFlowNextIndexAvail
OID (numeric): 1.3.6.1.4.1.9.9.447.1.1.1
Node type: OBJECT-TYPE
Type: Gauge
Access: read-only
Description: This object contains the next available value for the object ciscoScsiFlowId. If all values are exhausted, then this object will contain a 0 value. A management application should read this object, get the (non-zero) value and use same for creating an entry in the ciscoScsiFlowTable.
If two network management applications read this object at the same time and try to create an entry in the ciscoScsiFlowTable, only one of them will succeed. The network management application which failed, will need to re-read this object and try the SET again.
What is ciscoScsiFlowNextIndexAvail?
This object hands out the next unused index value for creating a new entry in the ciscoScsiFlowTable, and per the desc reads as 0 once all index values have been exhausted. A management application provisioning a new SCSI flow (used for Fibre Channel SAN write-acceleration/statistics features) reads this value first to know which index to use when creating the new row, rather than guessing or scanning the table for a free slot. If this object returns 0, the admin's provisioning tool knows the flow table is completely full and no new flow can be created until an existing one is deleted.
