sunPlatNumericSensorBaseUnits

Module: SUN-PLATFORM-MIB

OID (symbolic): SUN-PLATFORM-MIB::sunPlatNumericSensorBaseUnits

OID (numeric): 1.3.6.1.4.1.42.2.70.101.1.1.8.1.1

Node type: OBJECT-TYPE

Type: SunPlatBaseUnits

Access: read-only

Description: The base unit of the values returned by this Sensor, as per CIM_NumericSensor.BaseUnits.

Physical values are represented in the units obtained by (sunPlatBaseUnits * 10 raised to the power of sunPlatExponent). For example, if sunPlatBaseUnits is volts(6) and sunPlatExponent is -6, then the units of the values returned are microVolts.

What is sunPlatNumericSensorBaseUnits?

Specifies the physical unit (e.g. degC, volts, rpm, percentage) that this numeric sensor's readings are expressed in, before the exponent in sunPlatNumericSensorExponent is applied. An admin needs this to correctly interpret a raw value, e.g. knowing a reading of 45 with baseUnits degC(3) is a Celsius temperature.

Examples

Walk all instances (SNMPv2c):

snmpwalk -v2c -c public <target> 1.3.6.1.4.1.42.2.70.101.1.1.8.1.1
snmpwalk -v2c -c public <target> SUN-PLATFORM-MIB::sunPlatNumericSensorBaseUnits

Get a specific instance (index 1):

snmpget -v2c -c public <target> 1.3.6.1.4.1.42.2.70.101.1.1.8.1.1.1
snmpget -v2c -c public <target> SUN-PLATFORM-MIB::sunPlatNumericSensorBaseUnits.1
