What is hpicfHAMgmtFailovers?

This counter tracks the total number of management module failovers that have occurred since the chassis was last booted. Admins watch this counter for unexpected increases, since repeated failovers can indicate an unstable management module or a recurring hardware fault rather than a single planned event. If this counter jumps from 1 to 4 within a day, an admin would investigate why the standby module keeps taking over instead of staying stable.

Examples

Walk all instances (SNMPv2c):

snmpwalk -v2c -c public <target> 1.3.6.1.4.1.11.2.14.11.1.11.2.2
snmpwalk -v2c -c public <target> HPICFHIGHAVAILABILITY-MIB::hpicfHAMgmtFailovers

Get a specific instance (index 1):

snmpget -v2c -c public <target> 1.3.6.1.4.1.11.2.14.11.1.11.2.2.1
snmpget -v2c -c public <target> HPICFHIGHAVAILABILITY-MIB::hpicfHAMgmtFailovers.1

Start monitoring HP ProCurve modular chassis switch (dual-supervisor high availability) with a free 30-day trial of IPNetwork Monitor. Create custom SNMP monitor using the HPICFHIGHAVAILABILITY-MIB::hpicfHAMgmtFailovers OID value, configure state conditions and alerts, and monitor any HP ProCurve modular chassis switch (dual-supervisor high availability) from a single console.

How to Use in IPNetwork Monitor

Select an HP ProCurve modular chassis switch (dual-supervisor high availability) as the target host to create a monitor — the SNMP service should be up and running on it. Click New Monitor, then check SNMP Custom on the Favorites tab, click Next, and confirm the host. On the next page, click Select... to open the built-in SNMP MIB Browser and type hpicfHAMgmtFailovers into the Find box to locate it in the OID tree, then select it and click OK. Specifies the number of management module failovers since last chassis boot. On the monitor's Main parameters page you can set the target's SNMP port (default 161), credentials, polling interval, and other settings — see the SNMP Monitor help for details. On the State conditions and Alerting tabs, configure when the monitor should change state and trigger an alert; since this is a Counter32-type OID, Value bounds is the most useful condition here — trigger an alert if the counter increases between polls, since a rising count of errors, failures, or discards often points to a real underlying problem. Click Finish to create the monitor; you can adjust any parameter later.
