How to pull uplink port digital diagnostic rx/tx dbm values

[MartC]

We had an issue recently where we had to replace a couple of SPF modules within our Virtual Connect SE 16Gb FC Module for Synergy modules

This can be discovered within OneView Rx Power (dBm) and Tx Power (dBm) values are below or over a certain threshold

I am trying to pull these values from OneView using the OneView PowerShell module

I can get as far as listing the relevant 16 or 32 Gb IC modules and relevant data within but am unable to obtain the additional Digital Diagnostic data

We have several Synergy FrameSets and would like to be able to pull these values accross our estate

Any assistance would be greatly appreciated as I am stumped

Thanks

Hello @MartC ,

The Rx Power (dBm) and Tx Power (dBm) values can be obtained from your switch.
Run the command "sfpshow -all" to get detailed information about the SFPs.
Please refer to this link for more information on the command.

I believe, my post will help you in resolving your issue. If yes, please give Kudos and mark my post as 'Accepted solutions'.

Hi Sahana_S,

Many thanks for your reply, it is much appreciated

Correct me if I am wrong but I believe the document you provided would help me for our uplink switch but not the Synergy Interconnect Modules

My intention is to put together a script using the OneView PowerShell module to pull the Rx Power (dBm) and Tx Power (dBm) values from the Synergy appliance per Interconnect per Synergy FrameSet

We have many Synergy FrameSets and pulling all values per IC per FrameSet into a table would ease locating any SPF which may require replacement as was the case with issues experienced recently where a faulty SPF needed replacing

The OneView appliance holds the detail for each specific Interconnect and uplink ports where the SPF detail can be found as in the image below:

I have been  using the below HPEOneView module CMDLETS below without much success…

$TargetIC = Get-OVInterconnect -Name "<Target Interconnect name>"

Show-OVPortStatistics -Interconnect $TargetIC | ?{$_.portname -eq "Q1:1"} | select *

If you or anyone else knows where I am going wrong then please met me know
Also if its possible to enable some sort of alerting within the appliance for the same would be even better!

Many thanks

Hello @MartC ,

Please refer to the HPE OneView PowerShell library and its cmdlets guide for more information.

I hope this helps!
