EPICenter Events
Table D-2: EPICenter Events, Detected Through Polling
Event Definition
SNMP Unreachable The EPICenter server generates this event when it fails to
communicate with a device following a previously
successful communication. In other words, this event is
generated when the state of communication with the device
transitions from reachable to unreachable.
SNMP Reachable The EPICenter server generates this event when the state
of communication with the device transitions from
unreachable to reachable.
Configuration Upload Failed The EPICenter server generates this event when it fails to
upload configuration information from a device. This event
occurs ONLY when the upload is attempted from
EPICenter, not if it was attempted from Telnet,
ExtremeWare Vista or any other method.
Configuration Upload OK The EPICenter server generates this event when it
successfully uploads configuration from a device. This
event occurs ONLY when the upload is done from
EPICenter, not from Telnet, ExtremeWare Vista or any
other method.
Overheat For Extreme Networks devices only. The EPICenter server
generates this event for an Extreme device when it detects
a transition from normal temperature to overheat condition
on the device. Unlike the SNMP overheat trap event, this
event is based on a state transition, and will be generated
only once. As an alternative, you can detect an Overheat
condition by using the SNMP Overheat trap, which will be
generated every 30 seconds until the condition is corrected.
Fan Failed For Extreme Networks devices only. The EPICenter server
generates this event for an Extreme device when it detects,
via polling, a transition from fan OK to fan failed condition on
the device. Unlike the SNMP Fan Failed trap event, this
event is generated only once, based on a state transition.
As an alternative, you can detect a Fan Failed condition by
using the SNMP Fan Failed trap, which will be generated
every 30 seconds until the condition is corrected.
Device Reboot The EPICenter server generates this event for a device
when it detects a device reboot (cold start or warm start).
Unlike the cold start or warm start SNMP trap, EPICenter
generates this event by polling the device.
