Hi Proposed Resolution to ent-state-79 Replace section 2.2.1-2.2.8, 2.3 and the object definitions (not the textual conventions) for entStateAdmin, entStateOper, entStateUsage, entStateAlarm, and entStateStandby. Note that this may not include all edit to this objects proposed in relation to other issues. entStateAdmin OBJECT-TYPE SYNTAX AdminState MAX-ACCESS read-write STATUS current DESCRIPTION "The administrative state for this entity. A value of 'notApplicable' means that this entity is unable to report administrative state. This object can not be administratively set to 'notSupported'. For entities that do not support administrative state, changing the value of this object to something other than 'notSupported' is not permitted. A value of 'inconsistentValue' will be returned in either case. Some physical entities exhibit only a subset of the remaining administrative state values. Some entities cannot be locked, and hence this object exhibits only the unlocked state. Other entities can not be shut down gracefully, and hence this object does not exhibit the shutting down state. A value of 'inconsistentValue' will be returned if attempts are made to set this object to values not supported by its administrative model." ::= { entStateEntry 2 } entStateOper OBJECT-TYPE SYNTAX OperState MAX-ACCESS read-only STATUS current DESCRIPTION "The operational state for this entity. A value of 'notApplicable' means that this entity is unable to report operational state. Note that unlike the state model used within the Interfaces MIB [RFC2863], this object does not follow the administrative state. An administrative state of down does not guarantee an operational state of disabled. A value of disabled means that an entity is totally inoperable and unable to provide service both to entities within its containment hierarchy, as defined by having a value of entPhysicalContainedIn that refers to this entity, or to other receivers of its service as defined in ways outside the scope of this MIB. A value of enabled means that an entity is fully or partially operable and able to provide service both to entities within its containment hierarchy, as defined by having a value of entPhysicalContainedIn that refers to this entity, or to other receivers of its service as defined in ways outside the scope of this MIB " ::= { entStateEntry 3 } entStateUsage OBJECT-TYPE SYNTAX UsageState MAX-ACCESS read-only STATUS current DESCRIPTION "The usage state for this entity. A value of 'notApplicable' means that this entity is unable to report usage state. Note that in the context of a physical entity, this object refers to an entity's ability to service more physical entities in a containment hierarchy. A value of idle means that no other entity is contained within this entity, as would have been demonstrated by a value of entPhysicalContainedIn that referenced this entity. A value of 'active' means that at least one entity is contained within this entity and therefore has a value of entPhysicalContainedIn that references this entity, but that it could handle more. A value of 'busy' means that the entity is unable to handle any additional entities being contained in it, as demonstrated by having a value of entPhysicalContainedIn that refers to this entity. Some entities will exhibit only a subset of the remaining usage state values. Entities that are unable to ever service any entities within a containment hierarchy will always have a usage state of busy. Some entities will only ever be able to support one entity within its containment hierarchy and will therefore only exhibit values of idle and busy." ::= { entStateEntry 4 } entStateAlarm OBJECT-TYPE SYNTAX AlarmStatus MAX-ACCESS read-only STATUS current DESCRIPTION "The alarm status for this entity. It does not include the alarms raised on child components within its containment hierarchy, as defined by a value of entPhysicalContainedIn that references this entity. A value of 'notApplicable' means that this entity is unable to report alarm state. If no bits are set, then this entity supports reporting of alarms, but there are currently no active alarms against this entity." ::= { entStateEntry 5 } entStateStandby OBJECT-TYPE SYNTAX StandbyStatus MAX-ACCESS read-only STATUS current DESCRIPTION "The standby status for this entity. A value of 'notApplicable' means that this entity is unable to report standby state. Some entities will exhibit only a subset of the remaining standby state values. If this entity does not have a standby, this object will always be providingService." ::= { entStateEntry 6 } Sharon -----Original Message----- From: entity-state [mailto:rt+entity-state@rt.psg.com] Sent: Tuesday, July 15, 2003 4:32 AM To: Chisholm, Sharon [CAR:0S00:EXCH] Subject: [psg.com #79] AutoReply: Missing States for Physical Components <clip> Thank you, rt+entity-state@rt.psg.com ------------------------------------------------------------------------- Juergen Schoenwaelder [schoenw@ibr.cs.tu-bs.de] 'd) state 'lock' for entStateAdmin of a container? f) state 'active' for entStateUsage of a power supply? g) state 'active' for entStateUsage of a fan?'
