Chapter 8 Alarms and Alarm Management

Attribute Value Alarms

Because the Catalyst 6000 family switches and the Cisco 7600 series Internet Router running IOS do not
support SNMP traps for hardware component failures or changes, the C65/76M software polls certain
object attributes to determine hardware status. If the polled value indicates a failure, the C65/76M
software raises an appropriate alarm. The following objects have one or more attributes polled for status
information:
•

Message/Description
"C6576M Chassis Core Temperature
Status is ok. Core temperature is within
normal operation limits."
"C6576M Chassis Core Temperature
Status is error. The core chassis
temperature is greater than the normal
operating temperature range."
"C6576M Chassis Core Temperature
Status is critical. The switch is going to
shutdown due to excessively high core
temperature."
"C6576M Chassis Fan Status is ok."
"C6576M Chassis Fan Status is other."
"C6576M Chassis Fan Status is
minorFault."
"C6576M Chassis Fan Status is
majorFault."
"C6576M Chassis Used Slots has
changed. The switch line card
configuration has changed."
A change in this value initiates a
subchassis rediscovery.
