Module: CPQFCA-MIB

OID (symbolic): CPQFCA-MIB::cpqFcTapeLibraryStatus

Access: read-only

Description: Fibre Channel Tape Library Status.

The library can be in one of the following states:

other(1) The library is in a state other than one of those listed below.

ok(2) Indicates that the library is in normal operation mode. No user action is necessary.

degraded(3) Indicates that the library has degraded in some manner.

failed(4) Indicates that the library has failed and can no longer return data. The library may need to be replaced.

offline(5) Indicates that the Insight Agents can no longer communicate with the library. This could be caused by a cabling problem or the library may be powered off.

What is cpqFcTapeLibraryStatus?

This enumerated value reports the operational state of the tape library, as other, ok, degraded, failed, or offline. An admin polls this as the primary health check for tape backup hardware, since failed(4) or offline(5) would mean scheduled backup jobs relying on this library cannot run. For example, offline(5) discovered before a nightly backup window would give the admin time to investigate power or cabling before the backup is scheduled to start.
