Hi,
I’ve just noticed that fan failures on the ASR 9k are not detected by Observium. In fact, it seems have nothing at all under the ‘status’ tab?
The 6500s have over 20 entries in there for “Fan - Fail” or “PSU - Fail” or “I’m not facing magnetic north - Fail” etc. but the ASR9000 have no status tab whatsoever.
Reason for noticing this; is that we have a chassis which currently has a ‘Major-Alarm’ failure indicator LED on the RSP, due to a failed fan tray. Observium shows the device has being ‘OK’ and is not seeing either the Major alarm or the fan tray failure:
canb-server[151]: %PLATFORM-CANB_SERVER-3-ALARM_INDICATION : Raise alarm from CBC in slot 0/FT0/SP, alarm code CBC_ALRM_FT_LED_RED_FAILED
LED Information

(fans are now OK again)
Is this a case of Cisco not exporting any of this useful (and rather critical) information properly? Would be good to graph fan speeds if they are exported. Or are other people getting these OK and it’s just us with the issue?
Cheers!
