State Object/Resource Object Pairs
State Transitions for Resource Objects
Figure 14-2 illustrates how resource objects move between states. Note that:
•
Setting a “Connected” object to “Disabled” forces a transition through the
“Disconnected” state. This permits the orderly shutdown of the resource and the
generation of a state change event for the disconnected state.
•
“Connect Success,” “Connect Failure,” and “Resource Fault” all relate to actions
and events detected by the subagent. Internally generated transitions produce an
EMS event indicating the state change, as described in
Event Message
Descriptions on page 14-33.
•
An SNMP general error is returned if the Ethernet Subagent receives a Set
“Enabled” request against a state object that is in the “Connected” state.
Modifying the Value of a Resource Object
To modify the value of a resource object:
1. Set the value of the resource object’s associated state object to “Disabled.”
2. Set the resource object to a new value.
