796.0. "Notification of power supply failure?" by ARRODS::GILLJ (John, DTN 847-5849) Mon Mar 07 1994 07:05

Hi,

My customers has a number of DEChub 900s in a LAN configuration.

Each of the DEChubs has a full compliment of power supplies.

Is it possible for them to get notification of the failure of any of the 
power supplies (on HUBwatch or DECmcc)?

Any help appreciated,

John

796.1Here's what to poll...QUIVER::SLAWRENCEMon Mar 07 1994 08:3125
    HUBwatch V3.X will include event logging - I'll leave it up to them to
    provide a pointer (or look around for notes on alarms and events).
    
    You can use any SNMP poller to watch the Chassis MIB variables that
    report power supply status.  There is a single counter that reflects
    the number of power supply status changes for the hub exclusive of
    insertion or removal, so polling that for changes will tell you when
    any supply fails:
    
       chasPowerConfigChanges
    
    Since your hubs are configured with redundant power, you might also
    want to watch the variable that indicates whether or not the hub has
    redundant power available (just as a check):
    
       chasPowerConfigRedundancyState
    
    You can get copies of the MIBs via:
    
    	Digital Internal WWWeb
          http://www-dechub.lkg.dec.com/external-info/mibs.html
    
        Anonymous FTP (internal or external)

796.2V3.0 does itLEVERS::SWEETMon Mar 07 1994 11:574
    HUBwatch V3.0 will have the event reporting as well as a view
    that summarizes the power and thermal subsystems of the HUB.
