ctEntStateUsage
Module: CTRON-ENTITY-STATE-MIB
OID (symbolic): CTRON-ENTITY-STATE-MIB::ctEntStateUsage
OID (numeric): 1.3.6.1.4.1.52.4.2.31.1.1.1.1.4
Node type: OBJECT-TYPE
Type: EntityUsageState
Access: read-only
Description: The usage state for this entity.
This object refers to an entity's ability to service more physical entities in a containment hierarchy. A value of 'idle' means this entity is able to contain other entities but that no other entity is currently contained within this entity.
A value of 'active' means that at least one entity is contained within this entity, but that it could handle more. A value of 'busy' means that the entity is unable to handle any additional entities being contained in it.
Some entities will exhibit only a subset of the usage state values. Entities that are unable to ever service any entities within a containment hierarchy will always have a usage state of 'busy'. Some entities will only ever be able to support one entity within its containment hierarchy and will therefore only exhibit values of 'idle' and 'busy'.
What is ctEntStateUsage?
This reports whether this entity currently has other entities populated within its containment hierarchy, such as a chassis slot with or without an installed card. It lets an admin identify empty capacity versus occupied slots at a glance. For example, a chassis slot entity reporting idle tells the admin that slot is empty and available, while active means a card is already installed there.
