Description: Status of MW queue. The meaning of the statuses are as follows: internal-error - An internal error has occurred. ok - MW is functioning correctly. failed - The MW DSA is not contactable. Update will be queued. The uncontactable DSA needs attention. failed-no-dsa - MW Update failed. Knowledge of DSA lost. non-existent - Waiting for DISP but knowledge of DSA lost. recovering - MW DSA has been contacted and being updated. disp-failed - A failure occurred during DISP. The cause of this needs to be resolved before MW will continue. wait-disp - Waiting for DISP to complete before MWing. q-purged - MW queue was purged and MW to the DSA disabled. failed-sent - Have sent an update to a previously uncontactable DSA and waiting on a response.

What is dxMWStatus?

This enumerated value reports the current health of the MultiWrite queue toward a remote DSA, such as ok, failed, recovering, or q-purged. An admin monitors this because, per the MIB's own definitions, 'failed' means the remote DSA is uncontactable while 'disp-failed' means a DISP-level problem is blocking updates until resolved. For example, seeing this value at failed(2) tells an admin the remote-DSA updates will keep queuing until connectivity is restored.
