Hello community,
I have a Cisco Catalyst 2960-S stack with 2 members with IOS 15.2(2)E8 and an RPS2300 with two 750W power supplies connected to it. All works fine, in the CLI the RPS is recognized and is backing up without problems. I just have one specific SNMP monitoring problem.
Details:
Every RPS PS backs up one Switch member. That means, if the AC power feed for both 2960-S is offline, the RPS backs up two members.
During normal operating state, SNMP shows the following:
# snmpwalk -v2c -c <community> <IP> .1.3.6.1.4.1.9.9.13.1.5.1.2
CISCO-ENVMON-MIB::ciscoEnvMonSupplyStatusDescr.1006 = STRING: Sw1, PS1 Normal, RPS Normal
CISCO-ENVMON-MIB::ciscoEnvMonSupplyStatusDescr.2006 = STRING: Sw2, PS1 Normal, RPS Normal
If the AC power feed fails, the SNMP RPS variable changes from "Normal" to "Critical". However, if AC feed is fine and one RPS PS becomes faulty, the SNMP does not return any "Critical", it stays on "Normal" state.
On the CLI, it reports a faulty RPS PS correctly, even the syslog writes a message. But the SNMP stays at "Normal" state.
Do you have any idea how this can be monitored during SNMP so that we get alarms when just one RPS PS becomes faulty?
Thanks in advance for your tips.
Daniel
