Operational status properties

Many (but not all) classes of managed objects support the concept of operational status. That is they maintain information about the current functional state (Not Communicating, Not Operating, etc.) of the managed resource and whether that current functional state is considered acceptable (not alert causing) or not. If a class of object supports the operational status concept, it provides the standard properties defined in the following table (referred to as the operational status properties) in addition to those defined earlier in this section.

Unless stated to the contrary, any object class data model that includes the base managed object properties schema should be understood to also provide these operational status properties as well. For object classes for which that is not the case, the data model description will specifically point out that operational status and thus these operational-status-related properties are not provided for that object.

The operational status properties are as follows:

Name Qualifier Type Description
status (sc) String Enum The current operational status of the managed resource. The possible status values vary by managed object class and are specified in the description of each managed object class that provides this property.
additional-status (sc) String Enum A qualifier to the status property used by selected object classes to provide finer grained operational status tracking.
acceptable-status (w)(pc) Array of String Enum The set of operational status values that the managed resource can be in and be considered to be in an acceptable (not alert causing) state.
has-unacceptable-status (sc) Boolean If true, the current operational status of the managed resource is not one of the acceptable statuses for this resource.
