Module: IBMESCON-MIB

OID (symbolic): IBMESCON-MIB::esconPortOutFiberStatus

OID (numeric): 1.3.6.1.4.1.2.5.17.1.1.1.3

Node type: OBJECT-TYPE

Type: INTEGER

Access: read-only

Description: Status of the fiber out of this device to the host:

outDisableReq = out disable obtained; the fiber out of this device into the host is not in the light-on state outDisableForced = out ESCON emits OLS; the fiber out of this device into the host is not in the light-on state outLoffForced = out ESCON forced light-off; the fiber out of this device into the host is not in the light-on state outOls = the fiber out of this device into the host is in an intermediate state between light-off and light-on outOlsforced = out ESCON forced OLS; the fiber out of this device into the host is not in the light-on state outEnable = the fiber out of this device into the host is in the light-on state, and is ready to transfer data from this device to the host outError = the status of the fiber out of this device to the host is none of those listed above. This is a state that should not occur

What is esconPortOutFiberStatus?

This enumerated object reports the status of the outbound fiber from this ESCON device toward the host, covering states like disabled, forced light-off, an intermediate offline-sequence state, or fully enabled. Admins use this to determine why the host isn't receiving data from this device, separate from the inbound fiber status. For example, a value of outDisableForced(2) would tell the admin the device itself is actively suppressing its outbound signal, rather than a cabling fault being the cause.
