Cisco 12 000/10720 Router Mana ger Object States
Decommissioned State
The decommis sioned state indicat es that an obj ect is not ma naged. W hen yo u manuall y depl oy a n object ,
it is normally placed into a decommissioned state.

the ob ject or not . If yo u want t o m anag e t he ob j ect, you ne ed t o c omm issi on t he ob j ect.
The following actions occur on a decommissioned object:
•Active management stops
•All sub objects are also decommissioned
Decom mission buttons ar e loc ated in C has sis, M od ule , Int erfac e a nd VLA N C onfigur ation w indows.
When you decommission an object, any children of that object also change their state to
decom missioned. For ex ample, if yo u decommis sion a chassi s, all object s with in that chassi s (GRP card,
line cards, interfaces, connections) are also decommissioned. If you decommission a line card, all
interfaces and connections on that line card are decommissioned, and so on.
Normal State
The norma l state indi cates tha t an object is operatio nal. Whe n any physical object e nters the nor mal
state, Cisc o 12000/107 20 Router M anager performs he artbea t pollin g on the objec ts. The hea rtbea t
polling interval for chassis object is 1 minute and for all modules and interface objects, the heartbeat
polling interval is 5 minutes.
Errored
When the object is in a non-operational state, it moves into the errored state. In the errored state,
performance polling (if activated) is stopped; howe ver , the heartbeat polling (which polls an object ev ery
5 minutes to ve rify its existence and current state) continues, until the device responds positively to the
heartbeat r equest. When the module is operational a gain, it resp onds positi ve ly to the heart beat requests,
and then moves into the state wh ich it previously he ld.
Performance Logging On
When performance logging is started on an object in the Normal state, the object moves into the
Performance Logging On state. This means that the performance data is collected on the object and is
viewed in the Performa nce wi ndows or the Performa nce Manage r windows. Perform ance loggi ng is
enabled for GRPs, interfaces and VLAN sub-interfaces. You can enable performance logging on a global
scale or on an individual o bj ect ba sis. En ab ling gl o bal per forma nce logg i ng put s a ll subc hassi s ob ject s
