esconPortOutFiberStatus
Module: IBMESCONCUB-MIB
OID (symbolic): IBMESCONCUB-MIB::esconPortOutFiberStatus
OID (numeric): 1.3.6.1.4.1.2.6.119.4.14.1.1.1.2
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 read-only INTEGER reports, per its source description, the status of the fiber running out of this ESCON channel adapter to the host, covering several not-ready states (outDisableReq, outDisableForced, outLoffForced, outOls, outOlsForced), the ready state outEnable (light-on and able to transfer data to the host), and outError, described as a state that should not occur. Admins use this to diagnose the physical outbound optical link toward the mainframe host, and treat outError(7) specifically as an indication of an unexpected adapter fault. For example, seeing outError(7) reported here would be unusual enough to warrant escalating to hardware diagnostics on the ESCON adapter itself.
