%ENVM-6-PSCHANGE : [chars] changed from [chars] to [chars]

Explanation    A change has occurred to the status of the power supply. A power supply module has been inserted into or removed from the system.

Recommended Action    This is an informational message only. No action is required.

Error Message     

%ENVM-6-PSLEV : [chars] state changed from [chars] to [chars]

Explanation    One of the power supply test points has undergone a state change from a normal state to a shutdown state, or from a shutdown state to a normal state. This condition should occur only in a system with dual power supply modules. A state change from normal to shutdown is probably due to overheating caused by the failure of a power supply fan.

Recommended Action    If the power supply has been shut down, replace the power supply module.

%ENVM-1-VOLT_WARNING : Environmental monitor detects voltage out-of-range warning. Voltage name: [chars], Nominal: [dec] Voltage sensor reading: [dec]

Explanation    The voltage is either too high or too low. For AS5400/AS5350, a warning message is displayed on the console and an SNMP trap is sent out.

Recommended Action    Make sure that the power supply to the AS5400/AS5350 is normal. If the problem can not be corrected, power off the system to avoid damage to the internal parts.

Error Message    

%ENVM-4-WARNING : [chars] measured at [chars]

Explanation    One of the measured environmental test points for voltage or temperature has exceeded the warning level.

Recommended Action    Closely monitor the condition and correct it if possible.

If the message is a temperature warning, perform the following checks:

1. Ensure that a fan in a power supply module or a fan module has not failed.

2. Ensure that a fan module is not missing from the system.

3. Ensure that the room cooling or air conditioning is functioning properly.

If it is a voltage problem on multiple cards, check your input AC/DC voltage source. If it is a voltage problem on a single card, ensure that a backup or spare card is available for replacement in case the voltage continues to deteriorate on that card.
