hpEntPhysicalContainedIn

Module: HP-ENTITY-MIB

OID (symbolic): HP-ENTITY-MIB::hpEntPhysicalContainedIn

OID (numeric): 1.3.6.1.4.1.11.2.14.9.1.1.1.1.4

Node type: OBJECT-TYPE

Type: INTEGER

Access: read-only

Description: The value of hpEntPhysicalIndex for the physical entity which 'contains' this physical entity. A value of zero indicates this physical entity is not contained in any other physical entity. Note that the set of 'containment' relationships define a strict hierarchy; that is, recursion is not allowed.

What is hpEntPhysicalContainedIn?

This holds the hpEntPhysicalIndex value of the physical entity that contains this one, forming a strict, non-recursive containment hierarchy; a value of 0 means this entity isn't contained in anything else. Admins and management software use it to reconstruct the physical layout of a chassis, such as which slot a card sits in or which chassis a power supply belongs to. A card entity showing hpEntPhysicalContainedIn set to the chassis entity's index confirms it's mounted in that specific chassis.

Examples

Walk all instances (SNMPv2c):

snmpwalk -v2c -c public <target> 1.3.6.1.4.1.11.2.14.9.1.1.1.1.4
snmpwalk -v2c -c public <target> HP-ENTITY-MIB::hpEntPhysicalContainedIn

Get a specific instance (index 1):

snmpget -v2c -c public <target> 1.3.6.1.4.1.11.2.14.9.1.1.1.1.4.1
snmpget -v2c -c public <target> HP-ENTITY-MIB::hpEntPhysicalContainedIn.1
