What Is MSSSERVER8260-MIB?

MSSSERVER8260-MIB is an SNMPv1-format enterprise MIB whose ORGANIZATION and CONTACT-INFO comments identify it as an IBM MIB - despite the null vendor field supplied - for the IBM Nways Multiprotocol Switched Services (MSS) Server blade that plugs into an IBM 8260 chassis backplane. It defines a mandatory mss8260Prod group with mss8260ResetFlag (remote reboot control), mss8260DRAMinstalled, mss8260NotifyStatus (trap enable/disable), and mss8260TempThresholdStatus (normal/warning/shutdown), plus a mss8260PCAdapter group with mss8260PCAdapTable listing PCMCIA adapter slots and their card type (hard drive, modem, flash card, or not present). Three TRAP-TYPE definitions - mssServer8260ELSTrapV2 (Event Logging System messages), mss8260PCAdapTypeChg, and mss8260TempThresholdChg - notify a manager of logged events, PC-card changes, and temperature-threshold transitions respectively. Because it predates SMIv2 and models a single blade rather than a chassis-wide fabric, it is a small hardware-status MIB useful mainly for catching an overheating blade or an unexpected PC-card removal on legacy IBM 8260-based multiprotocol switching hardware; administrators can download the MSSSERVER8260-MIB file to load it into their MIB browser.

IPNetwork Monitor allows you to monitor SNMP objects defined in MSSSERVER8260-MIB. Use the built-in SNMP Monitoring Browser to explore available variables, view their current values and descriptions, and select the objects you want to monitor. You can then create SNMP monitors, configure thresholds, and receive alerts when monitored values change.

Supported Devices

IBM Nways Multiprotocol Switched Services (MSS) Server blade, IBM 8260 chassis

Monitoring Examples

An operator polls mss8260TempThresholdStatus on the blade, and a transition from normal(1) to warning(2) or shutdown(3) - paired with an mss8260TempThresholdChg trap - would indicate the MSS Server blade is overheating in its 8260 chassis slot.

What Can Be Monitored

reset/reboot flag state
installed DRAM size
temperature threshold status
PC adapter (PCMCIA) slot type
trap notification enable status
ELS event, PC-card, and temperature-change traps

OIDs

OID symbolic	OID numeric	Type	Access	Description
ibm	1.3.6.1.4.1.2
ibmProd	1.3.6.1.4.1.2.6
nwaysMSS	1.3.6.1.4.1.2.6.118
mssServer8260	1.3.6.1.4.1.2.6.118.3
NTF mssServer8260ELSTrapV2	1.3.6.1.4.1.2.6.118.3.0.2			The trap announces an Event Logging System (ELS) event occurred. The variable proElsSubSysEventMsg provides a textual description of the event. The variable is in one of two formats. If ELS timestamping is enabled, the format is hr:min:sec subsys_name.event_num: message_text. An example would be 09:32:56 IP.008: no rte 9.7.1.8 -> 9.7.4.3 dsc. If ELS timestamping is disabled, the format is subsys_name.event_num: message_text. An example would be IP.008: no rte 9.7.1.8 -> 9.7.4.3 dsc.
NTF mss8260PCAdapTypeChg	1.3.6.1.4.1.2.6.118.3.0.3			The trap announces a change in the type of PC card. It shall be sent if the value of the mss8260PCAdapType changes and mss8260NotifyStatus has a value of enabled(1).
NTF mss8260TempThresholdChg	1.3.6.1.4.1.2.6.118.3.0.4			The trap announces a change in the temperature of the blade. It shall be sent if the value of the mss8260TempThreshold changes and mss8260NotifyStatus has a value of enabled(1).
mss8260Prod	1.3.6.1.4.1.2.6.118.3.1
INT mss8260ResetFlag	1.3.6.1.4.1.2.6.118.3.1.1	INTEGER	read-write	The flag that controls the reset process in this blade. This variable shall assume a value of noreset(1) in the absence of a request for a reset from the management application. This variable shall assume a value of reboot(2) if the management application requests that this blade execute a complete hardware reboot which reloads the code load from storage.
INT mss8260DRAMinstalled	1.3.6.1.4.1.2.6.118.3.1.2	INTEGER	read-only	The total amount of dynamic RAM installed on this blade. The amount is in units of megabytes.
INT mss8260NotifyStatus	1.3.6.1.4.1.2.6.118.3.1.3	INTEGER	read-write	The status of the trap reporting service in this blade. This variable shall assume a value of enabled(1) if this blade is permitted to send traps. This variable shall assume a value of disabled(2) if this blade is prohibited from sending traps.
INT mss8260TempThresholdStatus	1.3.6.1.4.1.2.6.118.3.1.4	INTEGER	read-only	The status of the temperature in this blade. This variable shall assume a value of normal(1) if the temperature is within proper operating range for this blade. This variable shall assume a value of warning(2) if the temperature becomes elevated but this blade can still operate. This variable shall assume a value of shutdown(3) if the temperature is beyond the operating limits of this blade.
mss8260PCAdapter	1.3.6.1.4.1.2.6.118.3.2
INT mss8260PCAdapNumSlot	1.3.6.1.4.1.2.6.118.3.2.1	INTEGER	read-only	The number of PC adapter slots available for this blade.
mss8260PCAdapTable	1.3.6.1.4.1.2.6.118.3.2.2		not-accessible	A table of PC adapters entries. The number of entries is given by the value of mss8260PCAdapNumSlot.
mss8260PCAdapEntry	1.3.6.1.4.1.2.6.118.3.2.2.1		not-accessible	A PC adapter entry containing objects to describe the operational aspects of the PC adapter on this blade.
INT mss8260PCAdapSlotNum	1.3.6.1.4.1.2.6.118.3.2.2.1.1	INTEGER	read-only	The relative slot location at which the adapter is attached to this blade. Slots are numbered from 1 to 2 (bottom to top) when facing this blade. This variable serves as the index for the mss8260PCAdapTable.
INT mss8260PCAdapType	1.3.6.1.4.1.2.6.118.3.2.2.1.2	INTEGER	read-only	The type of PC adapter that is inserted into this slot. The variable shall assume a value of unknown(1) if the adapter in the slot is not supported by this blade. The variable shall assume a value of harddrive(2) if the slot contains a PC disk drive. The variable shall assume a value of modem(3) if the slot contains a PC data/fax/voice modem. The variable shall assume a value of flashcard(5) if the slot contains a PC flash card. This variable shall assume a value of notPresent(4), when a PC card is not plugged into the corrisponding slot.
