States of the DEFINITY G3 Icons

Conditions Causing Change of State

Icons are in a certain state based on one of several events, either the NMS
polling the Proxy Agent or the Proxy Agent sending traps to the NMS. The
following events can change a PBX icon's state:
The NMS polls the Proxy Agent for the g3healthMajor object. If the value
of this object is greater than zero, then the icon's state is set to Major.
The default polling interval for the g3healthMajor object is one minute.
The NMS polls the Proxy Agent for the g3healthMinor object. If the value
of the model polling interval is greater than zero and if g3healthMajor is
equal to zero, then the icon's state is set to Minor. The default polling
interval for the g3healthMinor object is one minute.
The NMS polls the Proxy Agent for the g3healthWarning object. If the
value of this object is greater than zero and value of the g3healthMajor
object and g3healthMinor objects are equal to zero, then the icon's state
is set to Warning. The default polling interval for the g3healthWarning
object is one minute.
If the value of g3healthMajor, g3healthMinor, and g3healthWarning is
equal to zero, the icon's state is set to Good.
The Proxy Agent sends traps to the NMS. If the NMS receives a trap, it
sets the state of the appropriate icon to the severity of the alarm
represented by the trap, or it sets the state to the current state,
whichever is more severe. For example, if the NMS receives a minor
alarm trap and the current state of the icon is Warning, it changes the
PBX icon's state to Minor. However, if the NMS receives a minor alarm
trap and the current state for that icon is Major, it does not change the
PBX icon's state.
The NMS polls the Proxy Agent for the sysDescr object to determine if
the Proxy Agent is running. If the NMS receives a response that the
object does not exist or if the Proxy Agent does not respond, the icon's
state is set to Unknown. The default polling interval for the sysDescr
object is one minute.
