Measures reported by NKPsTest

Frequent interruptions and temperature fluctuations may damage the power supply unit and, sometimes, could even make the power supply unit unavailable. If the abnormality left unattended for longer duration, it may halt the functioning of the target Nokia IPSO firewall. This in turn may leave the security of the IT environment at risk. To avoid such power fluctuations/interruptions, administrators should be able to detect the unavailability and failure of the power supply unit at the earliest. This is where this test helps!

For each power supply unit of the target firewall, this test reports the current health and temperature status. This way, administrators are alerted to failures (if any) of the power supply units at the earliest and rectify failures before the operation of the target firewall is completely affected.

Outputs of the test : One set of results for each power supply unit of the target firewall that is to be monitored.

Descriptor of the test : Power Supply Unit

The measures made by this test are as follows:

Measurement Description Measurement Unit Interpretation
psStatus Indicates the current status of this power supply unit.   The values that this measure can report and their corresponding numeric values are tabulated below:

Measure Value Numeric Value
Not available 0
Running 1
Not running 2

Note:

By default, this measure reports the above-mentioned Measure Values while indicating the current status of each power supply unit. However, in the graph of this measure will be represented using the numeric equivalents only.
psTemp Indicates the current temperature state of this power supply unit.   The values that this measure can report and their corresponding numeric values are tabulated below:

Measure Value Numeric Value
Not available 0
Normal 1
Over temprature 2

Note:

By default, this measure reports the above-mentioned Measure Values while indicating the current temperature state of this power supply unit. However, in the graph of this measure will be represented using the numeric equivalents only.
