The second part of an event’s status is its classification of report (RP)
or clear (CL). A report signals an event’s occurrence while a clear
signifies the resolution of a prior event. As an example, if a module’s
operating temperate were to exceed the temperate threshold, the
management module would log a “High Temperature Threshold” event
in the log with a classification of report, marking the occurrence of the
event. And when the temperature dips below the threshold, the module
logs the same event message, but with a clear classification signaling
the prior event’s resolution.

Only a few of the event messages can be both report and clear. For a
list of the messages, refer to Table 18 on page 140.

Table 16. Severity Level Definitions

Severity Level

Definition

CR

Critical - Indicates critical events signal
the loss of power to or the failure of a
power module. Messages of this level can
also reflect a physical change to the
stacking feature, such as the removal of a
stacking cable or the introduction of new
chassis to a stack.

MJ

Major - Indicates major events announce
a component failure to a fan or media
converter module. Resets of and powering
on a module or chassis are also
categorized as major events.

MN

Minor - Indicates minor events encompass
physical changes to a chassis, such as
the installation or removal of a module.
Connecting and disconnecting cables to
the ports of the media converter channels
are also listed as minor events.

EV

Event - Indicates event messages
typically signal a change in the status of a
management component, such as the
Telnet or SSH server. The start and end
points of remote Telnet and Secure Shell
management sessions and TFTP
functions are also members of this
category.
