Solution to monitor power supply modules of Aruba switches

  • 1.  Solution to monitor power supply modules of Aruba switches

    Posted Jan 24, 2022 02:24 PM
    Hey There,

    I have been looking for a solid solution which is able to monitor power supply status of Aruba switches, not power consumption, but something like PS online, PS failed or PS not inserted, etc. I've known that NAE component can do this but only for AOS-CX based switches like 6200 or above. Is there a total solution that can monitor other switch models like 2930 and 5400? 

    Thank you in advance.

    Hi,

    You can use Airwave Management solution to achieve your requirements.

    Hey Pavan,

    Would you please elaborate a little bit more on which part of Airwave that provides the option? As when I searched for power supply throughout the entire Airwave guide, I could only find power consumption monitor, but nowhere found the power supply status monitor.

    I don't know about solutions that gather this info, but I've found the power supply status available in SNMP.  The entries for POWERSUPPLY-MIB::hpicfPsState
    HpicfDcPsState ::= TEXTUAL-CONVENTION
    STATUS        current
    DESCRIPTION   "An enumerated value which provides the state of the 
                  switch power supply entity."
    SYNTAX        INTEGER  {
       psNotPresent(1),
       psNotPlugged(2),
       psPowered(3),
       psFailed(4),
       psPermFailure(5),    
       psMax(6)
    }​

    I have been able to use this OID for 2920s (stacked), 2930Ms (stacked), 5406Rzl2 (stacked and unstacked).  Here are some outputs I gathered when testing.

    2920 stack of 4 (1 PSU each)
POWERSUPPLY-MIB::hpicfPsState.1 = INTEGER: psPowered(3)
POWERSUPPLY-MIB::hpicfPsState.2 = INTEGER: psPowered(3)
POWERSUPPLY-MIB::hpicfPsState.3 = INTEGER: psPowered(3)
POWERSUPPLY-MIB::hpicfPsState.4 = INTEGER: psPowered(3)

2930M stack of 2 (2 PSU each)
POWERSUPPLY-MIB::hpicfPsState.1 = INTEGER: psPowered(3)
POWERSUPPLY-MIB::hpicfPsState.2 = INTEGER: psPowered(3)
POWERSUPPLY-MIB::hpicfPsState.3 = INTEGER: psPowered(3)
POWERSUPPLY-MIB::hpicfPsState.4 = INTEGER: psPowered(3)
POWERSUPPLY-MIB::hpicfPsState.5 = INTEGER: psNotPresent(1)
POWERSUPPLY-MIB::hpicfPsState.6 = INTEGER: psNotPresent(1)
POWERSUPPLY-MIB::hpicfPsState.7 = INTEGER: psNotPresent(1)
POWERSUPPLY-MIB::hpicfPsState.8 = INTEGER: psNotPresent(1)
POWERSUPPLY-MIB::hpicfPsState.9 = INTEGER: psNotPresent(1)
POWERSUPPLY-MIB::hpicfPsState.10 = INTEGER: psNotPresent(1)
POWERSUPPLY-MIB::hpicfPsState.11 = INTEGER: psNotPresent(1)
POWERSUPPLY-MIB::hpicfPsState.12 = INTEGER: psNotPresent(1)
POWERSUPPLY-MIB::hpicfPsState.13 = INTEGER: psNotPresent(1)
POWERSUPPLY-MIB::hpicfPsState.14 = INTEGER: psNotPresent(1)
POWERSUPPLY-MIB::hpicfPsState.15 = INTEGER: psNotPresent(1)
POWERSUPPLY-MIB::hpicfPsState.16 = INTEGER: psNotPresent(1)
POWERSUPPLY-MIB::hpicfPsState.17 = INTEGER: psNotPresent(1)
POWERSUPPLY-MIB::hpicfPsState.18 = INTEGER: psNotPresent(1)
POWERSUPPLY-MIB::hpicfPsState.19 = INTEGER: psNotPresent(1)
POWERSUPPLY-MIB::hpicfPsState.20 = INTEGER: psNotPresent(1)

5406Rzl2 vsf stack of 2 (2 PSU each)
POWERSUPPLY-MIB::hpicfPsState.1 = INTEGER: psPowered(3)
POWERSUPPLY-MIB::hpicfPsState.2 = INTEGER: psPowered(3)
POWERSUPPLY-MIB::hpicfPsState.3 = INTEGER: psPowered(3)
POWERSUPPLY-MIB::hpicfPsState.4 = INTEGER: psPowered(3)
