Trap Reference?

John Drew — Mon, 17 Apr 2006 12:39:09 GMT

I'm trying to find a reference guide that outlines status values for HP traps - for example, I received a trap

Physical Drive Status Change-Physical Drive Status is now 16

I'm trying to find out what the various status codes are, and haven't had any luck.

If somebody could point me in the right direction I'd greatly appreciate it!

John,

Got the same question. See:

Most of it is explained in this tread

Hi John,

It is explained in the event.
Look into the MIB itself for all options.

You will find for the physical drive status:

cpqDaPhyDrvStatus OBJECT-TYPE
SYNTAX INTEGER
{
other(1),
ok(2),
failed(3),
predictiveFailure(4)
}
ACCESS read-only
STATUS mandatory
DESCRIPTION
"Physical Drive Status.

This shows the status of the physical drive.

The following values are valid for the physical drive status:

other (1)
Indicates that the instrument agent does not recognize
the drive. You may need to upgrade your instrument agent
and/or driver software.

ok (2)
Indicates the drive is functioning properly.

failed (3)
Indicates that the drive is no longer operating and
should be replaced.

predictiveFailure(4)
Indicates that the drive has a predictive failure error and
should be replaced."
::= { cpqDaPhyDrvEntry 6 }

For the trap flags the cpqhost.mib is referenced. There you will find the meaning of each bit, your '16' is 'failed', '8' is OK.

Thanks Rene and Wijnand,

I should have mentioned that I already dug through the event/traps reference. I was disappointed that the new version doesn't have the information in it - the old Compaq version had the values in.

I went to the MIB and found what I was looking for.
