The switch contains a local alarms mechanism. Local alarms are raised and cleared by applications running on the switch. View active alarms by using the show alarm database command in the CLI. Local alarms are an automatic mechanism run by the system that do not require additional configuration.
Check local alarms regularly to ensure no alarms require additional attention. The raising and clearing of local alarms also creates a log entry for each event. For more information about viewing logs, see View Logs.
View the alarm database regularly to monitor alarm conditions, even if you do not observe a performance problem. Review the alarm messages to determine if the system performs as expected.
Not all alarm conditions indicate a problem so you must be familiar with expected behavior.
The alarm database shows the following alarm text:
CP1 [01/01/70 00:03:06.796] 0x00010844 00000000 Global Router HW WARNING USB found in slot 1 has VendorId 05dc ProductId a01a and Manufacturer Lexar and did not match supported devices
This alarm means that you have tried to insert an unsupported USB device into the USB slot. Only the USB device provided with your system can be inserted into the USB slot.
