Setting Chassis Weights (chassis high-availability factors)

Each component in a Chassis has a quality weight factor, which sets its relative importance to overall Chassis health. For example, ports are more important than fans and are typically assigned a higher weight value. The Chassis grade is the sum of all component weight values. In a High Availability environment, the Chassis with the higher grade becomes Active and handles traffic. The grade for each component = (Unit Weight) X (Number of UP components)

To see the weight of each component:

> asg stat -v

Use set chassis high-availability factors to configure a component's weight.

Syntax

> set chassis high-availability factors SGM <sgm_factor>
> set chassis high-availability factors port high <port_high_factor> | port standard <port_standard_factor> 
> set chassis high-availability factors sensor cmm <ccm_factor> | sensor fans <fans_factor> | sensor power_supplies <psu_factor> | sensor ssm <ssm_factor>
> set chassis high-availability factors pnote pingable_hosts <ping_factor>

Parameter

Description

<ssm_factor>

SSM factor

This factor applies to all SSMs.

Valid range: Integer between 0 and 100

<ping_factor>

Pingable hosts factor

Weight factor for pingable hosts, which shows if they are properly connected to their hosts.

Valid range: Integer between 0 and 99
