This chapter explains how to diagnose and handle line interface module (LIM) events generated by the Cisco 6100 Series system. The following information is presented for each of the events:
If none of the actions presented for the event are successful, contact the Cisco Technical Assistance Center (TAC) for additional support.
Table 16-1 lists LIM events and their IDs, definition, severity, and description. A detailed explanation of these events and corrective actions required (if any) is located in subsections in this chapter.
| ID | Definition | Severity | Description |
|---|---|---|---|
3 | FMEVENT_LIM_CONNECT_FAILURE | Major | LIM was not able to connect to the switching matrix |
128 | LR_CREATE_OBJ | Info | Module was detected |
129 | LR_PING_FAIL | Critical | Module did not respond to system monitor |
| ID | Event Name | Severity |
|---|---|---|
3 | FMEVENT_LIM_CONNECT_FAILURE | Major |
The following description appears in the ViewRunner for Windows Event History View dialog box or the ViewRunner for HP OpenView Error Events Browser:
LIM was not able to connect to the switching matrixEvents of this type are normally coded as minor, but are currently are maintained as critical. This is done to preserve the node software's requirement to decouple event severity from service state impact.
In some cases, a module forces itself into a self-test based on the alarm condition. In other cases, the system controller (SC) module forces the alarmed module to reset. A module reset forces the module to be power cycled, self-tested, and reconfigured into the slot by the SC module.
Several alarm event conditions are cleared by a module reset. Look for the alarm event to clear within 1 minute. An alarm event is cleared when the SC module faceplate alarm LED changes from red to off.
In the ViewRunner management software, two actions show that an alarm event is cleared:
If the alarm event does not clear:
Step 1 Remove and reinsert the module. This forces a module to reset if neither the module nor the SC module could force a reset. A module reset usually clears all alarm conditions.
Step 2 Observe the SC module alarm LED or the ViewRunner ejector tabs to see if the alarm condition returns. If the previous problem persists, the condition will probably reoccur within 1 minute.
Step 3 If the alarm condition persists, replace the module.
| ID | Event Name | Severity |
|---|---|---|
128 | LR_CREATE_OBJ | Info |
The following description appears in the ViewRunner for Windows Event History View dialog box or the ViewRunner for HP OpenView Error Events Browser:
Module was detectedEvents of this type do not indicate service impairment or loss.
This is an information event, not an alarm event. Information events do not represent a state change and therefore are not followed by a Cleared event.
Information events are typically one-time occurrences that are corrected by the module without a reset. They do not cause service degradation.
No craft action is required.
