Module Status Values

B.4 Link Status Values

Each switch (see AppendixA (CompaqAlphaServer SC Interconnect Terms)) has an

entry in the elites table. Each switch has eight links and the state of each of these

links is recorded in the linkstate ﬁeld of the elites table. Theﬁeld holds eight

characters, onefor each link. Validvalues for the characters are as shown in Table B.2.

See also Section A.2.

TableB.2: LinkStatus Values

State Character Description

Connected CNormal working state

Reset RLink is in reset

Acking ALink generates an ACK for all transactions

Nacking NLink generates an NACK for all transactions

Not connected _Link is not connected

Unknown U swmgrcannot determine link state.

B.5 Module Status Values

Module status information for nodes and the switch network is held in the modules

table. The estatus ﬁeld stores the node’s operating environment; speciﬁcally,it shows

whether the cooling fans and power supply units (PSUs) are working correctly and

whether any ofthe other components are overheating.

Changes in environmentstatus arerecorded in the events table; entries are keyed by

class=module type=Xwhere Xis temperature,temphigh,psu, or fan. The valid

strings and their meaning are shown in Table B.3.

If the environment status, estatus, is recorded as ok, the environment ﬁeld of the

modules table contains temperature readings from the CPU,PSU and enclosure. If a
