Measures reported by CisNexusVoltSenTest

For a Cisco Nexus Switch to function without a glitch, it is essential for the three modules (Supervisor, I/O and Fabric) to function properly. If any of the modules do not function as expected, then that particular module will shutdown automatically. If the modules are frequently shutdown, then the overall performance of the Cisco Nexus Switch may degrade drastically. To avoid this performance degradation, administrators should constantly keep a vigil on the voltage passing through each module. The CisNexusVoltSenTest test helps administrators in this regard.

This test auto-discovers the voltage sensors in the modules of the Cisco Nexus Switch and reports the current status of each voltage sensor and the current voltage passing through each module.

The measures made by this test are as follows:

Measurement Description Measurement Unit Interpretation
Sensor_status Indicates the current state of this temperature sensor.   The values reported by this measure and its numeric equivalents are mentioned in the table below:

Measure Value Numeric value
Ok 1
Unavailable 2
Non operational 3

Note:

By default, this measure reports the Measure Values listed in the table above to indicate the current state of the sensor of this voltage unit. The graph of this measure however, represents the status of a server using the numeric equivalents only - 1 to 3.
Voltage Indicates the current voltage detected by this voltage sensor. Volts
