Unrecognized Sensor Types

Event Data 2 and 3 – (2 bytes) Event data field contents which varies depending on how Event Data 1’s high nibble is set.

The CMM uses the above 16 bytes of data from a SEL entry to produce human readable output. There are two general categories that an event can fall into: 1) data that the CMM code base recognizes, and 2) data that is unrecognized by the CMM.

For unrecognized events the CMM does not have enough encoded knowledge to translate the event. For instance, all events with a Record Type of OEM timestamped or non-timestamped fall into this category. In addition, any standard IPMI events that are not currently supported by the CMM translation code also fall into this category.

Beginning in firmware version 5.2 the CMM has the ability to display and trap both recognized and unrecognized events.

28.2System Events— SNMP Trap Support

All CMM generated traps have a standard “header” that is shown below. The first four items (i.e., Time, Location, Chassis Serial #, and Board) represent information that does not necessarily have to come from the event itself. These pieces of information are helpful in tracing the trap back to its source.

28.2.1SNMP Trap Header Format

Time : TimeStamp , Location : ChassisLocation , Chassis Serial # :

ChassisSerialNumber , Board : Location

Where:

TimeStamp is in the format: [Day] [Month] [Date] [HH:MM:SS] [Year]. For example, Thu Apr 14 22:20:03 2005

ChassisLocation is the chassis location information recorded in the chassis FRU.

ChassisSerialNumber is the chassis serial number recorded in the chassis FRU.

Location is the location where the sensor generating the event is located (i.e., CMM)

The next portion can be controlled by a CMM variable to turn it on or off. This section provides the text interpretation of the event.

28.2.2SNMP Trap ATCA Trap Text Translation Format

Sensor : SDRSensorName , Event : HealthEventString , Event Code : EventCodeNumber

Where:

SDRSensorName: The name given to the sensor in the Sensor Data Record (SDR).

HealthEventString: The CMM's translation of the event.

EventCodeNumber: A hexadecimal number that uniquely defines the event. This will be in the format x%X.

The final portion that an SNMP Trap might contain is the “raw” portion of the trap. This reports the original sixteen bytes of the System Event as ASCII upper case hex bytes.
